Chapman Freeborn and Air Libya have formed a partnership to fly cargo in Libya using an Antonov An-26 freighter, which will be based at Tripoli’s Mitiga International Airport on a long-term lease agreement.
The venture will introduce internal scheduled services to connect Tripoli and Benghazi with Libya’s more remote airfields—including regular operations to the oil fields in the south of the country.
The An-26—which offers a 5.5 ton payload—will be available for ad hoc cargo charter requirements within Libya as well as international flights to and from the European Union and North Africa.
“The venture will provide much needed logistics solutions in a country where few international aviation companies are currently willing to invest in establishing services,” Chapman Freeborn said in a statement. “It will also provide a viable alternative to sea freight routes to and from Europe which have been subject to high rates.”
