Neutral Air Partner Expands with My Freighter in Central Asia Cargo Network

On May 13, 2026, Neutral Air Partner (NAP) officially announced the addition of My Freighter, a rapidly expanding private cargo airline based in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, to its global airline partner portfolio. According to the company’s press release, this strategic integration is being facilitated through NAP’s dedicated NAV AERO Global Cargo GSSA Network.

As global supply chains continue to navigate complex geopolitical challenges and airspace restrictions, the partnership highlights the growing strategic importance of Central Asia as a premier logistics hub. By leveraging My Freighter’s extensive network, NAP members will gain enhanced access to critical East-West trade lanes, increased routing flexibility, and a reliable alternative for bypassing congested global airspaces.

We at AirPro News view this development as a critical step in fortifying neutral cargo solutions, providing forwarders with specialized capacity across strategically vital markets.

Expanding the NAV AERO Network

Founded in Hong Kong in 2016, Neutral Air Partner operates as a premier global air cargo logistics ecosystem. The organization unites forwarders, consolidators, airlines, and aviation specialists across more than 150 countries. Its primary objective, as stated in company materials, is to revolutionize neutral cargo solutions and enhance buying power across the entire supply chain.

The integration of My Freighter is managed by NAV AERO, a global network of independent cargo General Sales and Service Agents (GSSAs), brokers, and solutions providers powered by NAP. This network is designed to connect forwarders directly with specialist cargo capacity.

The Rise of My Freighter

Established between 2019 and 2020 and headquartered in Tashkent, My Freighter has quickly ascended to become the largest air cargo carrier in Central Asia by fleet size. The airline operates as a subsidiary of Centrum Holding, an international integrated aviation and logistics group. According to industry research data, forwarders utilizing My Freighter also benefit from additional passenger “belly-lift” capacity provided by Centrum Air, the holding company’s passenger airline division, which offers greater flexibility on selected routes.

Fleet Capabilities and the “Modern Silk Road”

To support its ambitious network strategy, My Freighter has invested heavily in dedicated cargo capacity. Verified operational data as of May 2026 indicates that the airline operates a dedicated fleet of 10 aircraft, comprising nine Boeing 767-300F freighters and one Boeing 757F.

The Boeing 767-300F aircraft offer a published payload capability of up to 52,000 kg. According to operational specifications, the airline is fully equipped to handle a diverse array of specialized freight, including general cargo, e-commerce parcels, automotive parts, high-tech goods, urgent shipments, oversized cargo, and dangerous goods.

The airline’s growth trajectory has been aggressive. Just weeks prior to the NAP announcement, on April 17, 2026, My Freighter took delivery of its ninth Boeing 767-300 freighter. Industry reports confirm that this aircraft was delivered by Cargo Aircraft Management (CAM), a division of Air Transport Services Group (ATSG), under a six-year lease agreement.

“My Freighter positions itself as a strategic Central Asia cargo bridge, connecting Asia, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and the CIS. Its network strategy is explicitly modeled after a modern Silk Road.”

Strategic Global Gateways

My Freighter’s network footprint spans several critical global markets. In Europe, key gateways include Liège, Maastricht, Budapest, Leipzig, Ostrava, Frankfurt, Tallinn, Geneva, and Belgrade. In Asia and the Middle East, the airline connects through Delhi, Almaty, Dubai World Central, Tel Aviv, Shenzhen, Ezhou, Hong Kong, and Shanghai.

In early 2026, the airline signed new interline agreements with carriers in China to bolster cargo operations between China and Central Asia. Furthermore, in late March 2026, My Freighter launched new multi-city scheduled cargo routes connecting Southeast Asia (specifically Vietnam and Thailand) and Central Asia to Europe (Frankfurt) via its Tashkent hub.

AirPro News analysis

We assess that this partnership represents a highly synergistic, win-win scenario for both Neutral Air Partner and My Freighter. The current global supply chain environment is fraught with geopolitical tensions, Red Sea maritime disruptions, and Russian airspace closures, all of which are forcing airlines to reroute flights and seek alternative corridors. Consequently, Central Asia has emerged as a highly strategic, neutral corridor for East-West trade.

Through this agreement, NAP secures highly sought-after, reliable East-West cargo capacity in a constrained global market. Conversely, My Freighter gains direct, immediate access to NAP’s massive global network of forwarders. This guaranteed access to a broad customer base is crucial for My Freighter to consistently fill its rapidly expanding fleet of Boeing 767 freighters and justify its long-term lease commitments.
