Quick Summary:

SEOUL : Air Incheon, set to become South Korea's second-biggest freight carrier once a deal to buy Asiana Airlines' cargo unit is finalised, will consider both Boeing and Airbus freighters to refresh the widebody fleet, its CEO said.

The acquisition will include the rights to fly to major Chinese export hubs like Shanghai, Guangzhou and Hong Kong, and to the U.S., Air Incheon CEO Stanley Seunghwan Lee told Reuters in an interview this week.

Korean Air had obtained a green light from 13 of 14 competition authorities for the Asiana deal and CEO Walter Cho has said he anticipates the final U.S.decision by the end of October.
