SolitAir: Dubai Cargo Airline Expands to 30 Global Routes in First Year

Dubai-based cargo airline SolitAir celebrates its inaugural year by expanding to nearly 30 strategic routes across the Middle East, Asia, and Africa, with plans to grow its fleet to 20 aircraft by 2027.

SolitAir, a dedicated B2B and airport-to-airport cargo airline based at Dubai World Central (DWC), has successfully completed its first year of operations, demonstrating significant growth and strategic expansion.

The airline launched with its first scheduled flight to Riyadh and has since built a robust logistics network spanning key regions. Its current route portfolio includes critical destinations across multiple countries:

  • India: Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Bengaluru
  • Middle East: Istanbul, Baghdad, Erbil, Kuwait, Bahrain, Beirut
  • Asia: Hong Kong, Urumqi, Dhaka, Karachi, Lahore
  • Africa: Dar es Salaam, Zanzibar, Eldoret, Nairobi, Benghazi, Johannesburg, Lusaka, Harare

Hamdi Osman, Founder and CEO of SolitAir, stated: “Our journey over the past year has exceeded expectations. In just 12 months, we’ve become a crucial logistics link for regional supply chains, and our rapid network and fleet expansion demonstrate our commitment to this mission.”

The airline has grown its fleet to seven Boeing 737-800 BCF freighters, with two new aircraft added in the past year. Operating from a 220,000-square-foot logistics hub at DWC, SolitAir is equipped to handle specialized cargo, including temperature-sensitive pharmaceuticals, e-commerce shipments, and hazardous materials.

Looking ahead, SolitAir aims to expand to 20 aircraft by 2027 and connect more than 50 cities, focusing on deepening its network across Africa, South Asia, and Central Asia.
