Air Astana has extended its long-term partnership with Jettainer, continuing to rely on the company’s expertise in Unit Load Device (ULD) management. This collaboration, which began in 2007, has been renewed for the long term, further solidifying the relationship between Kazakhstan’s national airline and the global leader in ULD services.
With plans to modernize its fleet, including the introduction of Boeing 787 aircraft, Air Astana’s ULD needs will evolve in the coming years. Jettainer will support the airline’s transition with tailored solutions, ensuring a smooth integration process.
By 2028, Air Astana plans to expand its fleet from 60 to 80 aircraft, including the addition of Boeing 787 Dreamliners. This fleet growth will require an expanded and diversified ULD fleet, and Jettainer will continue to provide expert support throughout the transition.
Through its ongoing partnership with Jettainer, Air Astana will benefit from a dedicated ULD fleet, efficient management, and seamless tracking, allowing the airline to focus on its core operations.
Berik Abdrakhmanov, director of ground services at Air Astana, remarked, “We have been working very well and closely with Jettainer for more than 18 years. We are confident that Jettainer’s team of experts will continue to help us achieve our growth plans with innovative and customized ULD services.”
Dr. Jan-Wilhelm Breithaupt, Jettainer’s CEO, added, “Air Astana’s decision to extend our joint contract is a testament to the trust and satisfaction they place in our services. Our customized solutions offer Air Astana the flexibility and reliability it needs to meet increasing demands and successfully expand its fleet with Boeing 787s.”
