Hunnu Air has ordered Mongolia’s first Beechcraft King Air 360, adding a new turboprop type to its expanding and diverse fleet. The charter and scheduled carrier will take delivery of the aircraft at the end of 2027, according to Textron Aviation.
The King Air 360 will be deployed on tourism flights, VIP commuter services, and regional operations within Mongolia. Its introduction is intended to support premium and niche travel segments on routes where demand or airfield characteristics do not justify larger regional jets.
The order continues Hunnu Air’s mixed-fleet strategy. The airline already operates Embraer E190 and E195-E2 regional jets on international and higher-density routes, alongside ATR 42 turboprops and Cessna Caravan aircraft serving domestic and remote destinations. The King Air 360 will sit at the upper end of Hunnu’s small-aircraft segment, offering a pressurized cabin and business aviation-style comfort for short- and medium-range sectors.
Based at Chinggis Khaan International Airport in Ulaanbaatar, Hunnu Air has been expanding its network across China, Central Asia, and domestic Mongolia. The addition of the King Air 360 aligns with a broader fleet renewal and growth plan that also includes new Cessna SkyCourier and Grand Caravan EX turboprops for passenger and cargo operations.
