JD Adds All-Cargo Aircraft Route from Shenzhen to Beijing

by Yuchuan Wang

JD Logistics announced adding a new air cargo route from Shenzhen to Beijing since Jun. 8, 2021. Using a Boeing 737 freighter, the all-cargo aircraft will help shorten fulfillment time in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Area, and the Great Bay Area of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macau.

The new route is operated by China Central Airlines and travels between the two cities six times a week, enabling consumers in northern China to enjoy fresh fruit such as lychee from Guangdong province delivered to their doorsteps in 24 hours.

Since last year, JD Logistics has been deepening its all-cargo partnerships with airlines including Zhejiang Loong Airlines and Zhongyuan Longhao Airlines. The company also continues to leverage freight resources from China Southern Airlines, China Eastern Airlines and Hainan Airlines. JD Logistics has a total of over 100,000 air routes between cities and its air deliver services can be provided in 300 cities, as of this June.

A representative from JD Express, JD Logistics' express delivery business, said that the newly launched route will also meet the increased demands from consumers and merchants during the 618 Grand Promotion.
