SolitAir, the UAE’s dedicated next-generation B2B, airport-to-airport, express middle-mile cargo airline, has announced the launch of two new destinations in Africa: Port Harcourt, Nigeria (PHC), served via Port Harcourt International Airport and Hargeisa, Somaliland (HGA), served via Egal International Airport.
The new routes extend SolitAir’s African network to 20 destinations across 16 countries, reinforcing the carrier’s role as a connector between the Gulf and some of the continent’s fastest growing but historically underserved markets.
Port Harcourt International Airport sits at the heart of Nigeria’s oil and gas economy and ranks among the country’s busiest cargo gateways, while Egal International Airport in Hargeisa anchors a region whose exports – from livestock to time-sensitive agricultural goods – depend on reliable dedicated freighter capacity.
Expanse
The new destinations bring SolitAir’s total global network to over 60 destinations across 35+ countries spanning Asia, Africa and Europe.
The addition of Nigeria and Somaliland further strengthens SolitAir’s growing presence across Africa, as the carrier continues to develop its network in line with customer demand and emerging trade opportunities across the continent.
“Nigeria and Somaliland are important additions to our African network, giving us an opportunity to strengthen connections between the Gulf and these markets. As we continue to expand, we’re focused on identifying destinations where there is clear demand for reliable air cargo services and where we can add value to existing trade flows,” stated Hamdi Osman, Founder and CEO, SolitAir.
