Cargo start-up SolitAir takes off with Lido Navigation

SolitAir, the UAE’s only dedicated cargo airline operating express daily scheduled services between Dubai and high-yield key trade routes across the Global South, has chosen Lido mPilot and Lido FMS from Lufthansa Systems to support its pilots and optimize flight operations.

With Lido mPilot, pilots gain access to a fully integrated and digital charting solution that simplifies navigation and enhances situational awareness. The intuitive application provides seamless access to terminal charts, dynamically generated enroute maps and an Airport Moving Map (AMM), all optimized for operational efficiency.

Meanwhile, Lido FMS supplies SolitAir with a high-quality, certified aeronautical database for its Flight Management System. Covering global navigation data, including waypoints, airways and approach procedures, the solution ensures the airline operates with the most accurate and up-to-date information available.

“As a fast-growing start-up in the competitive cargo industry, we require solutions that are not only efficient but also scalable to support our expanding operations,” said Hamdi Osman, Founder and CEO of SolitAir. “By integrating Lido mPilot and Lido FMS into our operations, we are providing our pilots with cutting-edge digital navigation tools, enabling us to optimize routes, enhance situational awareness and ultimately, deliver unmatched efficiency in express cargo transportation across the Global South. This partnership ensures we can continue to deliver the speed and reliability our customers expect while maintaining the highest standards of operational excellence.”

With this collaboration, Lufthansa Systems expands its presence in the United Arab Emirates while supporting SolitAir in its mission to enhance express cargo transportation across Middle East, Africa, the Indian Subcontinent and Central Asia.
