Skyway Airlines takes delivery of first Boeing 737-400(SF) freighter

Skyway Airlines has officially taken delivery of its first Boeing 737-400(SF) freighter, a converted Special Freighter aircraft supplied by World Star Aviation under a two-aircraft lease agreement. The aircraft, based at Clark International Airport, fulfills the first phase of the deal signed in June 2025, with the second unit delivered shortly after on 26 June 2026, bringing Skyway’s total fleet to three aircraft. This addition significantly strengthens cargo capabilities in the Asia-Pacific region, supporting strategic expansion plans including potential future routes to China. Skyway now operates cargo flights between Cebu and Davao, with the new capacity enabling expanded schedules and higher volume handling. The delivery aligns with global air cargo growth trends, with Asia Pacific volumes up 9% in July, demonstrating the continued viability of converted 737-400 freighters in the regional market.
