Coyne Airways is an all cargo airline based in London, United Kingdom. It has a separate operation in Dubai UAE. It operates cargo flights to Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Afghanistan, Iraq, UAE, Djibouti and Yemen, as well as other ad hoc destinations in Africa and Asia using Boeing, Antonov and Ilyushin aircraft as required. Its main bases are London Stansted, Cologne Airport, Tbilisi International Airport and Dubai International Airport. It is listed as the 95th largest carrier in terms of freight ton kilometres by Airline Business magazine in its November 2008 issue. [1]
History
The airline was established and started operations in 1994. It started as a charter broker specialising in the CIS market. In 1997 it pioneered scheduled freighter services to the Caspian starting with Baku but later adding Tbilisi, Yerevan, Aktau, Atyrau and Uralsk. In December 2006, it began serving this region with a B747 400F from Stansted to Cologne to its hub in Tbilisi where freight is then transferred to smaller aircraft for distribution around the region.
In July 2002, it inaugurated a freighter service between Seoul and Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk to meet the growing need for oil and gas development on Sakhalin Island in the Russian Far East.
In 2004, it set up the first (and only scheduled freighter services according to the Official Airline Guide) into Iraq serving Baghdad and many destinations around the country. In 2006 it set up scheduled services into Afghanistan serving Kandahar, Kabul and Bagram twice weekly.
It also serves Djibouti in the Horn of Africa and Sana'a, Yemen. In January 2008, it commenced B747 operations into Lagos, Nigeria. These were discontinued in April 2008.
It charters aircraft as required. It is wholly owned by Coyne Aviation (of which the Coyne family owns 100%) and has 28 employees (at October 2008)[1].
The fleet of Coyne Airways consists of one Boeing 747, one Tupolev Tu-204, one Ilyushin Il-76 and one Antonov An-12 (March 2010).
