SF Airlines (O3, Shenzhen) will develop its Beijing Capital operations into a base with the longterm aim of turning it into one of its regional and international gateways.

The freight specialist last week signed a partnership agreement with the Beijing Capital International Airport Co. which will result in the former enhancing its route network while optimizing the latter's airport logistics warehouse facilities.

In the long run, parent SF Express plans to use its Beijing hub as a primary distribution centre for both the Beijing and North China markets.
