Parata Air partners with Jettainer for ULD management

August 11, 2025

South Korea’s newest airline, Parata Air, has chosen Jettainer as its ULD management partner for the launch of its flight operations this autumn. Jettainer will manage the entire fleet of lightweight containers from day one and will continue to expand it, aligning with the airline’s ambitious planned growth strategy. All ULDs will be equipped with the latest tracking technology to achieve high-efficiency ULD management based on the intelligent IT solution JettwareNG. In addition, Jettainer provides efficient maintenance services for the ULD fleet.

At the start, passenger services to Japan and Vietnam are planned via the airline’s hub at Incheon Airport with a fleet of Airbus A320-200s and Airbus A330-200s aircraft. Next year will see the addition of transpacific routes serving the North American market. Therefore, further Airbus A330 aircraft will be added to the fleet over the next two years. The introduction of Airbus A350s is planned for 2028.

“The partnership with Jettainer, a global leader in ULD management, is an important step and ensures a highly efficient supply of lightweight ULDs for our growing route network from the very first flight”, says Unhyung Ko of PARATA AIR. “We deliberately opted for the efficiency and service quality of the experts to be able to develop our operations flexibly while at the same time having an always efficiently managed fleet of ULDs that grows in line with our requirements.”

“We are very much looking forward to being part of Parata Air’s journey from day one, supporting their ambitious growth plans with the efficient management of lightweight ULDs. Adding another customer in Asia, we are also expanding our network in the region and creating valuable synergies for Parata Air and all our customers”, says Thorsten Riekert, General Manager Asia Pacific at Jettainer.

Parata Air prioritizes safety above all and aims to break away from the conventional LCC-FSC dichotomy by delivering truly mindful and distinctive services to its customers. Parata Air’s predecessor is Fly Gangwon. Following its acquisition by WINIX last year, the company was renamed Parata Air and will commence flight operations in autumn.
