Modern Logistics now has two 737-800 Boeing Converted Freighter (BCF) aircraft in operation. The Brazilian integrated logistics company and cargo airline told Air Cargo News it took delivery of its second 737-800BCF this month.
This second aircraft is now “in service,” said the company.

The Brazilian integrated logistics company and cargo airline acquired its first 737-800BCF in October last year.
These two aircraft are expected to support Modern Logistics’ efforts to expand into other Latin American markets, particularly Argentina, Colombia, and Central America, and establish a facility in Miami.
Leased through Babcock & Brown Aircraft Management (BBAM), the 737-800BCFs have passed certification by PCA Airworthiness and received final approval from ANAC, Brazil’s aviation regulator.
The airline’s introduction of the new 737-800BCFs is part of a fleet renewal initiative to enhance operational efficiency.
In addition to the two 737-800BCFs, Modern Logistics’ fleet includes one 737-400F (25374) and one 737-300F (24219). The company recently returned a 737-300F (24463) off lease after removing it from service in December 2023. Frontera Flight Holdings purchased that aircraft.
