A carrier dedicated to freight in Bangladesh, registered in April 2007 and in commercial operation since July 2008, now wholly owned by the Karnaphuli Group, a Bangladeshi conglomerate with more than seventy years of trading history. The airline is based mainly at Dhaka Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport, with Cox's Bazar Airport as its second base. It flies Airbus A300C4-600R-F widebody freighters on scheduled international cargo services and Saab 340A freighters on domestic feeder cargo. Scheduled cargo routes link Dhaka with Zhengzhou and Guangzhou in China and with Hong Kong, making the airline one of the capacity options for cargo moving directly from China to Bangladesh.
Chinese-language service provider: Goodhope Logistics (China) Limited, handling booking, customs declaration and end-to-end logistics for international air freight, on routes from China to the United States and all major continents.
Easy Fly Express (IATA two-letter code 8E, ICAO three-letter code EFX, call sign EASY EXPRESS) was registered in Bangladesh on 18 April 2007 with air cargo as its only line of business, and operates no scheduled passenger flights. The airline took delivery of its first freighter, an HS 748 (registration S2-AAX), in May 2008, completed registration the same June and began commercial operations on 1 July 2008. The head office is at HR Bhaban in Kakrail, Dhaka, the main base is Dhaka Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport and the second base is Cox's Bazar Airport.
In February 2014 the Karnaphuli Group, a long-established Bangladeshi conglomerate, acquired the entire shareholding, giving the airline group-level capital and cargo backing. The Karnaphuli Group has traded for more than seventy years in trading, manufacturing and logistics and has long experience in Bangladesh's export industries. With these resources the airline holds capacity relatively steadily during peak seasons for Bangladesh's garment, fresh produce and seafood exports. The current chairman is Saber Hossain Chowdhury.
China is a core part of the airline's international network. Among the scheduled international routes listed publicly, Dhaka to Zhengzhou, Dhaka to Guangzhou and Dhaka to Hong Kong are all scheduled cargo services, alongside two scheduled South Asian routes, Dhaka to Delhi and Dhaka to Kolkata, and a charter service from Dhaka to Dubai. China accounts for the largest share of the scheduled international network, a structure that reflects two-way demand between China and Bangladesh for textile raw materials, garment semi-finished goods, electromechanical products and cross-border e-commerce cargo. The airline has published booking and cargo contact channels in mainland China, so shippers can book with the carrier directly or through us.

The information above is compiled from public sources. The active fleet and route structure may change to meet operational needs; the carrier's latest published data takes precedence.
Flown by the Airbus A300C4-600R-F widebody freighter on scheduled routes from Dhaka to Zhengzhou, Guangzhou, Hong Kong, Delhi and Kolkata, with the main deck loaded on standard pallets and containers.
Flown by the Saab 340A freighter on scheduled services between Cox's Bazar and Jessore and on non-scheduled services among Cox's Bazar, Jessore and Dhaka.
Cold-chain transport for seafood, fresh produce, pharmaceuticals and vaccines that need controlled temperature, with loading plans set by commodity and temperature range.
Live animals and dangerous goods can be carried, and whole-aircraft charters and non-scheduled flights can be arranged for volume shipments and unusual commodities.
Capacity structure: international capacity sits in the main deck of the widebody freighter, suited to general and heavy cargo shipped in standard pallets and containers; domestic feeder routes use the turboprop freighter, suited to smaller lots with tighter transit requirements. For dangerous goods, live animals and temperature-controlled cargo, full commodity and packing details must be provided at booking so the carrier can check them against the applicable rules before accepting the shipment. The three scheduled routes to China give the airline regular capability and schedule stability for China traffic.
The fleet is arranged in two tiers by sector length and volume. International sectors use the Airbus A300C4-600R-F widebody freighter, converted from the A300-600 passenger aircraft, whose main deck takes standard pallets and containers and suits volume cargo on medium-haul international mainlines; the airline has flown international cargo with this type since 2017, giving it widebody capacity to fly direct to China without a third-country stop. Domestic feeder routes in Bangladesh use the Saab 340A freighter, a twin-turboprop all-cargo aircraft suited to short runways and short to medium feeder sectors, in service on the Cox's Bazar to Jessore scheduled route since 2015. In its early years the airline also operated the HS 748 turboprop freighter, now retired.
| Aircraft type | Number | Category | Legs operated |
|---|---|---|---|
| Airbus A300C4-600R-F | 1 aircraft | Widebody freighter | Scheduled international cargo flights |
| Saab 340A freighter | 1 aircraft | Turboprop freighter | Domestic feeder and regional cargo |
| HS 748 freighter (historical) | 1 aircraft | Turboprop freighter | Cargo flights in the airline's early years |
The table is compiled from public sources. Technical specifications and per-aircraft payload are governed by the operating specifications published by the carrier.
| Widebody freighter | International mainline, pallet and container loads, general and heavy cargo in volume |
| Main deck loading | Takes standard pallets and containers; efficient loading and unloading |
| Turboprop freighter | Domestic feeder routes in Bangladesh, short sectors and small lots |

The chart groups the publicly listed route count by direction; the Middle East figure is a charter service. Frequency and aircraft type may change with the season and are subject to carrier confirmation on the day of booking.
The airline operates scheduled cargo routes from Dhaka to Zhengzhou Xinzheng International Airport, to Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport and to Hong Kong International Airport.Three scheduled routesThe two mainland Chinese points sit in central and southern China, close to the manufacturing and export origins in both regions.
Dhaka Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport is the main base, Cox's Bazar Airport the second base and Jessore Airport a domestic feeder point, covering the main air cargo gateways of Bangladesh.
In South Asia the airline operates scheduled Dhaka to Delhi and Dhaka to Kolkata routes; in the Middle East it offers a charter service from Dhaka to Dubai and can arrange other non-scheduled flights on demand.

The airline has two direct points in mainland China and uses Hong Kong as an additional access point for southern China. Chinese cargo can be loaded at Zhengzhou, Guangzhou or Hong Kong for Dhaka and then distributed through the domestic feeder network to destinations such as Cox's Bazar and Jessore. This structure means mainline transport from China to Bangladesh does not depend on a third-country transit, which makes delivery time and the handover of cargo more direct.
Operational note:For traffic to the United States and Europe we match capacity on the mainline carriers serving those routes. Where the origin is Zhengzhou or Guangzhou and the destination is Dhaka, it is worth checking capacity first on these two scheduled routes; we quote, clear customs and handle handover under one arrangement.

The airline carries international mainline cargo on widebody freighters with large per-flight capacity, so booking places high demands on pallet and container matching and on documentation discipline. Having a forwarder that knows the China-Bangladesh lane coordinate this reduces back-and-forth and the risk of re-booking, mainly in the following ways:
Three scheduled cargo routes link Dhaka with Zhengzhou, Guangzhou and Hong Kong, so Chinese cargo reaches Dhaka without a third-country transit and the handover on the mainline leg is direct.
The Airbus A300C4-600R-F is a widebody freighter loaded through the main deck, suited to bulk general cargo and heavy freight shipped as full pallets and containers, with more capacity per flight than narrowbody freighters or passenger bellies.
Published services include cold chain transport, live animal transport and dangerous goods handling, giving seafood, perishables, pharmaceuticals and special commodities an acceptance route.
Wholly owned by the Karnaphuli group, which has operated for more than seventy years, giving relatively stable support for cargo sourcing and peak-season space planning in Bangladesh's export industries.
Saab 340A freighters run scheduled flights between Cox's Bazar and Jessore, moving cargo landed in Dhaka to regional points inside Bangladesh.
Two freighters in service; international routes concentrated on China and South AsiaLimited capacityUS and Europe traffic has to be matched to other carriers by us, and peak-season space should be requested early.
Where the airline fits: its strength is nonstop freight from mainland China and Hong Kong into Dhaka, plus distribution inside Bangladesh beyond Dhaka. For cargo bound mainly for the US or Europe, or needing frequent small shipments, we normally put another carrier on the mainline and price each direction separately.
Zhengzhou and Guangzhou sit in central and southern China, so shippers can pick the nearer airport and cut domestic trucking distance. Cargo ex Zhengzhou covers central and northern China origins; cargo ex Guangzhou covers South China and the Pearl River Delta; cargo ex Hong Kong suits lots already consolidated into a Hong Kong warehouse. Space on all three routes is best requested in the same booking window so rates can be compared.
Dangerous goods, live animals and temperature-controlled cargo require full commodity names, packaging specifications, temperature ranges and supporting certificates before acceptance, reviewed by the carrier under the applicable transport rules. Confirmation takes longer than for general cargo, so allow enough review time before the planned ship date. We compile the documents as the booking request is submitted to reduce back-and-forth.
Space to Dhaka tightens around Bangladesh's garment export peak and public holidays. Cargo originating in China runs against the direction of that export peak but can still be affected by aircraft allocation and schedule changes. Bulk shipments and full-aircraft charters should be requested early, with alternative points or carriers held in the plan.
Once space is confirmed, submit consignee details for the air waybill, commercial invoice and packing list as the carrier requires. Clearance and pickup in Dhaka can be handled by a local agent, and onward movement to other cities in Bangladesh can be arranged on the same set of documents. Our quotes itemise origin customs, mainline air freight, and destination clearance and delivery separately.
