China’s Hainan Airlines has appointed Worldwide Flight Services to provide ramp handling for its 3-5 weekly passenger freighter services to and from Shanghai Pudong, in addition to its longstanding cargo handling partnership. The cargo-only flights use Boeing 787 aircraft and can carry up to 20 tonnes of cargo on the lower deck. Hainan previously operated passenger flights to Seattle, and introduced cargo flights using passenger aircraft during the pandemic. WFS also holds handling contracts with Hainan Airlines at New York JFK and in Paris CDG.
