Antonov Airlines soars away

[ July 16, 2018   //   ]

Antonov Airlines said its revenue grew by 81% in 2017 compared to the previous year, while January to May figures in 2018 were up 42% thanks to its strategic partnership with Dreamlifts and the establishment of its UK headquarters at London Stansted Airport. The heavy lift operator is working with Western suppliers for its fleet modernisation programme, which will ensure its aircraft are fit to fly well into the future. As part of this programme, it has increased the payload of two of its AN-124 airframes from 120 to 150 tonnes and will expand this across the remaining five airframes in due course.
