Order #1: MNG Airlines to order two Airbus A350F Freighters

Day 3 has begun and Airbus are once again off the races!

MNG Airlines (MNGA), a global logistics provider and e-commerce enabler based in Türkiye, has signed an Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for two Airbus A350 Freighter aircraft, as it becomes the latest airline to join Airbus on their freighter project.

CEO of Mapa Group and Chairman of MNG Airlines Murathan Doruk Günal said: “This agreement for two A350F deepens a partnership with Airbus across its full range of freighter programmes.”

“This move strengthens our position across key trade lanes, including Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and a growing footprint in North America. It will support both our scheduled and charter operations and give us added flexibility to meet evolving cargo demands,”

Benoît de Saint-Exupéry, Airbus EVP Sales of the Commercial Aircraft business commented; “We are delighted to welcome MNG Airlines as the latest customer for the A350F,”

“The A350F will bring new generation efficiency and performance as well as new levels of capacity and unprecedented loading flexibility. We look forward to ensuring a seamless integration into MNG’s operations,”

Since it’s introduction the Airbus A350F has been a wide success, and continues to show signs that it will be able to help fill a market gap that continues to exists as the older generation MD-11’s and B777F are starting to head towards the retirement park.
