LOS ANGELES, Dec. 2, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- With the expansion of operations in Africa and Southeast Asia, JETT has committed to lease three 737-800 freighters in the first half of 2022 followed by its first Boeing 777 converted freighter it hopes to add to the fleet towards the middle of 2022.

"That sort of number gives us critical mass," said Barry Oberholzer, Managing Partner at JETT.

The company is already offering offering cargo charters on five aircraft, two of which include an Airbus A321 and Airbus A330-200 which have been modified by having the seats removed. This is in addition to three Ilyushin IL-76TD aircraft, a Boeing 727-200F and a Boeing 747-400BCF.

"The future is the ideal combination between regional and long haul freighters. By combining the 737's and the 777 we are able to provide our clients the option to consolidate regional cargo to a major hub and then do our long haul sectors to the USA and Europe" he further states.

JETT says that its aggressive moves into cargo does not mean it is abandoning its private aircraft activities. "That business is just on a slower trajectory while the world still struggles with the ever evolving pandemic" it says.

JETT has extensive experience in ACMI operations, operating aircraft in the past for major global freight forwarders in Africa and the Middle East and provides cargo charters to major freight forwarders and corporations alike.
