Uzbekistan-based cargo airline My Freighter has entered into an interline agreement with Biman Bangladesh Airlines, aiming to establish a faster and more efficient air cargo corridor between South Asia and Central Asia.
The agreement, announced on social media by Biman, leverages the Bangladeshi flag carrier’s wide regional network and My Freighter’s dedicated freighter services from Dubai World Central (DWC) to Tashkent.
The new partnership enables cargo originating in Bangladesh to connect seamlessly via Dubai onto My Freighter’s routes into Central Asia.
The move is expected to improve access for key Bangladeshi exports—including textiles, pharmaceuticals, and high-value goods—to Central Asian markets, while significantly reducing transit times from Dhaka to Uzbekistan and neighbouring countries.
Streamlined South Asia–Central Asia Route
Biman’s extensive network spans the Middle East, South Asia, and Southeast Asia, with regular cargo flights to Dubai, a key global transit hub.
The collaboration allows for optimised multimodal cargo movement along a new Dhaka–Dubai–Tashkent corridor, covered by a single airway bill.
Mamur Mamadaliev, First Deputy CEO and CCO of My Freighter, told The STAT Trade Times that the airline aims to expand its fleet to between 30 and 50 aircraft by the end of 2026.
Currently, My Freighter operates eight Boeing 767 freighters and one Boeing 757F. Its most recent Boeing 767F was delivered in May.
Beyond its cargo operations, the airline also provides charter and passenger services under the Centrum Air brand, operating a fleet of Airbus A320, A320neo, A321neo, and an A330 aircraft.
Biman Bangladesh Airlines, meanwhile, operates a fleet of 20 aircraft, including Boeing 737s, 777s, and 787 Dreamliners, as well as De Havilland Canada DHC-8-400 turboprops.
Expanding Global Reach
The deal with Biman comes shortly after My Freighter announced a partnership with Icelandair Cargo.
That agreement extends My Freighter’s reach into Northern Europe and North America, including the United States, allowing the carrier to offer new lanes for time-sensitive cargo such as seafood and perishables.
My Freighter said these partnerships reflect its strategy to build scalable, end-to-end logistics solutions linking Central Asia to key global markets, with a focus on sectors including apparel, healthcare, e-commerce, and high-value freight.
