UAE carrier Etihad Crystal Cargo on Wednesday launched its weekly freighter services from Delhi, after connecting Mumbai and Chennai earlier this year.
Crystal Cargo, which is the cargo division of Abu Dhabi- based Etihad Airways, would add 39 tonnes of cargo payload every week in addition to the 15 tonnes carried on three weekly passenger flights between Delhi and the Gulf nation.
The freighter service would operate once a week between Abu Dhabi and Delhi, the airline said in a release.
Observing that its Mumbai and Chennai routes have shown "very high payloads", Etihad's Area Manager (India & Nepal) Dougie Douglas said the Indian subcontinent was a "very dynamic market" for cargo services.
Etihad Crystal Cargo launched its Mumbai services in February this year and from Chennai in June.
