Shipping giant Maersk has announced that it is launching Maersk Air Cargo, a new cargo airline to support Maersk's global operations. As part of the launch, Maersk's current airline, Star Air, will be merged into the new airline which will be based at Billund.
Operations are launching in 2022, with three B767-300Fs, which are transferred from Star Air. Later, the two newly ordered B777Fs will also join the operations of Maersk out of Billund. Maersk Air Cargo will also lease three additional B767-300Fs, which will, initially, be operated by a third party and will be used to boost the company's flights to China.
Star Air currently also operates twelve B767-200Fs, mainly for the British Royal Mail and UPS. These contracts will continue for now.
