Leveraging our globalised business network, particularly across Europe and Asia, we aim to meet the logistics needs arising from Chinese eCommerce platforms expanding internationally. We are delighted that this charter flight project has established a strong foundation for long-term collaboration with our client. In response to the escalating demand expected during the upcoming Christmas peak season, we have scheduled additional charter flights later this month.
