Meilan airport opens a new freight route! 



On March 5th, Haikou Meilan International Airport successfully opened the Incheon-Haikou-Singapore cargo route. This is the first round-trip cargo route connecting Southeast Asia to Northeast Asia opened by Meilan Airport in 2024.


It is also the third freight route with the fifth freedom right after "Haikou-Singapore-Jakarta" and "Incheon-Haikou-Kuala Lumpur", which further enhances the coverage, accessibility and radiation range of the freight route network of Hainan Free Trade Port.


It is reported that the inbound flights of this route mainly carry duty-free goods, while the outbound flights mainly carry e-commerce parcels and small commodities from Guangzhou and Shenzhen, as well as fresh aquatic products from Hainan. The maiden flight is full of 20 tons of cargo, and it is estimated that it will increase the capacity of Meilan Airport by 80 tons every week.


The route is operated by Incheon Airlines and operated by B737-800SF all-cargo plane. Take off from Incheon at 1:20 every Tuesday and Thursday; Arrive in Haikou at 5:25 and take off from Haikou at 6:25; Landing in Singapore at 10:00; Depart from Singapore at 11:00; Arrive in Haikou at 14:30 and take off from Haikou at 15:30; Return to Incheon at 20:35 (all the above times are local time).


According to Meilan Airport, the opening of this route not only better meets the freight logistics needs of the three places, but also provides a broader platform for deepening economic and trade cooperation among the three places. At the same time, this route also provides a more accurate, efficient and convenient air logistics choice for the transportation of duty-free goods in Hainan, which is helpful to build a brand of duty-free goods directly entering ports and promote the development of Hainan Free Trade Port and international tourism consumption center.
