The partnership will enable cargo moving within Korean Air Cargo's network to reach Tehran’s Imam Khomeini International Airport via Uzbekistan Air’s Navoi hub.
Korean Air Cargo already partners with Uzbekistan Air to feed cargo into Frankfurt. By the end of April it will be able to make use of the airline’s twice weekly service to Tehran with one of its 767-300Fs.
Korean Air stands to gain a sizeable foothold in Iran's cargo market through this partnership.
It was announced last month that Iran's Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport had granted Korean Air Lines the rights to operate passenger flights capable of carrying belly cargo, four times weekly between Incheon and Tehran.
