China Airlines becomes 20th operator of 777 Freighter amid higher demand for dedicated cargo jets.
MIAMI – Today China Airlines (CI) took delivery of the first of six Boeing 777 Freighters that will boost its operations as demand for air cargo is high. The carrier expects to increase its cargo capacity by 15% in 2021. The aircraft will be used on the Taipei-North America routes, as per the CI statement. As well as the B777F, China Airlines freighter fleet also consists of 18 B747 aircraft. The B777 Freighter has a range of 9,200 km and can carry a maximum payload of 102 tonnes. “The airplane will allow China Airlines to make fewer stops and reduce associated landing fees on long-haul routes, resulting in the lowest trip cost of any large freighter,” Boeing claimed.

China Airlines aims to increase its cargo capacity by 15% in 2021 and is planning to launch the 777 Freighter on routes connecting Taipei with North America — a key market with strong demand and escalating yields. An operator of all-Boeing freighter fleet, China Airlines debuted its new 777 Freighter during a ceremony in Taipei to mark the carrier’s 61st anniversary. The airline is set to take five more 777 Freighters as part of an order announced at the 2019 Paris Air Show.
The airplane has a range of 9,200 km (4,970 nautical miles) and can carry a maximum payload of 102,010 kg (224,900 lbs). The airplane will allow China Airlines to make fewer stops and reduce associated landing fees on long-haul routes, resulting in the lowest trip cost of any large freighter.

The 747 and 777 freighters, both of which make up China Airlines’ world-class freighter fleet, are capable of carrying tall and outsized cargo loads on 3-meter (10-foot) tall pallets. This common main-deck pallet height capability enables interchangeable pallets, adding to the versatility of both models.
