Probably their first commercial flights with automotive cargo from Tunis to Bratislava have been operated by the duo of the new Tunisian airline Cargo Wings Express (TS-IWA and TS-IWB). Unfortunately, the livery is equally boring after the former operator Cargo Air as the already autumn weather.
Spanish Swiftair operates a series of cargo charters with automotive cargo from Tunis to Bratislava this week. Yesterday the B757-200F of daughter company Cygnus Air operated the flight and today 13 October 2026 premiered the A321-200P2F.
Yesterday 08 October 2026 this first DHC-8-400 of a new branch Sky Alps Europe, which is trying to obtain Slovak AOC, arrived from Bolzano to Bratislava. For this purpose it operated a proving flight to Košice and back today and afterwards returned to Italy. It is one of the aircraft that were stored for several years in Bratislava after the closure of airline LGW.
After Saudi Arabia (numerous flights with B777F of Saudia Cargo) and Kuwait (together 5 flights with C-130 and C-17) also Qatar came from the Gulf to pick-up cargo from Bratislava with its military C-17 registration A7-MAB, which as a sole example carries "civil" livery of Qatar Airways.
Shortly before sunset a Qatar Emiri Air Force C-17 Globemaster III arrived today at Bratislava. After two registration changes they finally sent the "right" aircraft A7-MAB in the airline colours of Qatar Airways.
For my pleasure the second operational Boeing 707-300C Re´em of Israeli Air Force with number 272 finally visited Bratislava today. It was here last time in March 2024, when I was of course abroad.
