This new cargo route, the first of its kind at Wuhu Xuanzhou Airport, signifies the city’s efforts to enhance its global openness and integrate more deeply into the global economy.
According to the airport, the launch is crucial for accelerating the development of a globally accessible international air cargo network and building a competitive air cargo hub.
On March 18 this year, the airport received approval from the National Port Management Office to temporarily conduct cargo business.
The airport, which officially began operations in April 2021, has since opened 41 passenger routes and 6 all-cargo routes. It is classified as a medium-sized civilian airport and a specialized air cargo hub.
In 2023, the airport saw a passenger throughput of 1.23 million, a 218 percent increase from the previous year, and its cargo and mail throughput exceeded 20,000 tonnes, a 314 percent year-on-year rise. In the first five months of 2024, cargo and mail throughput reached 11,600 tonnes, up 191 percent year-on-year.
