Specialist air cargo management company Magma Aviation has announced it has opened a new office in Dubai and added Airbus and Boeing aircraft to its fleet.

The new aircraft include an Airbus A321-200P2F and a Boeing B737-800BCF. Magma Aviation says the narrowbody freighters will be strategically based at airports in the UAE and the Middle East to address the growing demand for reliable and efficient cargo transport.

With the new aircraft additions, Magma Aviation will become one of only a few cargo operators with access to both A321P2F and 737-800BCF capabilities.

Magma Aviation also says that its new office in Dubai will serve to support its increased operations and growing demand in the Middle East.

The site is headed up by Audrone Keinyte, director of Magma Aviation DMCC.

Keinyte said: “The two new narrowbody aircraft we have added to our fleet significantly strengthen our existing capacity, contributing a range of 5,500km between them.”

“This, alongside our new office situated in Dubai, means we now have a valuable operational base outside of Europe, which is already proving to be beneficial for our clients in the Middle East and nearby regions.

“We are delighted to expand upon our already extensive geographical coverage, growing our offering in line with customer demand and ensuring we can provide our industry-leading air cargo services in all corners of the globe.”
