MASkargo has resumed freighter operations to Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam as it strives to expand its air cargo network.
Freighter services between Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KUL) and Tan Son Nhat International Airport (SGN) previously existed as part of MASkargo’s scheduled network and have now been restarted, according to a MASkargo LinkedIn post on 10 April.
Air Cargo News has requested more details from MASkargo on the previous suspension of flights to Ho Chi Minh City.
The cargo division of Malaysia Aviation Group (MAG) said in a LinkedIn post today: “We have resumed our freighter operations to Ho Chi Minh City, supporting the continued flow of goods between Kuala Lumpur and one of Southeast Asia’s key trade hubs.
“This service enhances connectivity during a period of strong demand, ensuring cargo continues to move efficiently across the region.
“Together with our ground handling partner, SAGS, we remain focused on delivering safe, reliable, and seamless operations every step of the way.”
As part of its efforts to expand globally, MASkargo announced in April 2025 that it would launch a joint global cargo business with Qatar Airways Cargo and IAG Cargo.
The joint business aims to bring together the combined expertise and infrastructure of the airlines and is expected to enable a streamlined product offering, enhanced connectivity, faster transit times, and new routing opportunities across the airlines’ combined networks.
The three airlines aim to bypass the downfalls other air cargo partnerships have faced by adopting a fully integrated operating model that aligns cargo from booking to delivery, across the networks of all three carriers.
MASkargo’s freighter fleet comprises three production Airbus 330-200 freighters, each with a capacity of 61 tonnes.
