Japan Airlines begins operating cargo planes for the first time in 14 years, in collaboration with DHL Group companies. After going bankrupt in 2010, Japan Airlines sold all of its up to 14 international cargo planes in order to downsize its business.
The introduction of cargo-only aircraft is expected to increase the types of cargo that can be transported by the company. A total of three Japan Airlines cargo planes are scheduled to be introduced, and they will operate on routes connecting Narita Airport, with destinations such as Seoul, Taipei, and Shanghai.
