AirRajasthan Plans Cargo Airline With Jaipur and Fujairah Hubs
The developing Indian carrier says it plans cargo, charter and logistics services serving markets in India, the UAE, the GCC and Africa.
AirRajasthan is developing a cargo airline business in India, with plans for hubs in Jaipur and Fujairah. The company describes its intended markets as India, the UAE and the wider GCC, Africa, and other international destinations.
Key details
- The planned operation would combine air cargo, charter services, freight management and ground transport.
- India’s scheduled airlines carried about 3.11 million tonnes of cargo in financial year 2025/26, based on provisional DGCA figures cited in the report. The total included approximately 978,000 tonnes of domestic cargo and 2.13 million tonnes of international cargo.
- The provisional figures showed year-on-year growth of 24% for domestic cargo and 20.6% for international cargo.
- Quikjet Cargo Airlines and Blue Dart Aviation also operate cargo services in India, according to the report.
AirRajasthan plans to establish hubs in Jaipur, Rajasthan, and Fujairah, UAE.
Why it matters
Provisional DGCA figures point to growth in both domestic and international cargo carried by India’s scheduled airlines. AirRajasthan’s proposed mix of air services and ground transport would span more of the freight journey than flying alone.
