Ukraine-registered cargo carrier SuperNova Airlines has formalised general sales agent (GSA) partnerships with Alfa Airlines Services in Belgium and A.D. Aviation in Tel Aviv.
Alfa Airlines Services BV will act as Supernova’s exclusive GSA throughout all European Union member states.
A.D. Aviation has also been appointed as Supernova’s General Sales Agent for the Israeli market.
"We look forward to forging a long‑term alliance that will optimize market penetration and deliver mutual value for all stakeholders," said Supernova Airlines in a LinkedIn post on Wednesday 23 April.
Owned by New York-based logistics company Nova Global, Supernova Airlines was established on October 1 2021 and received a Ukrainian operator’s certificate in January 2023.
The airline's Boeing 737-800BDSF was added to its AOC in October last year. According to current Planespotters data, the 737-800SF is the sole aircraft in operation for the airline, but data shows the airline previously had use of a ATR 72.
In October last year, Supernova secured European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) approval as a Third Country Operator (Part-TCO) in the EU.
Then in November, Supernova carried out the first charter cargo flight on its 737-800BDSF from Budapest to Chisinau.
The airline is hoping to operate scheduled flights to the US in the future and is currently in the process of obtaining operating permits from the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and Transporation Security Administration (TSA).
The airline expects to operate flights from Boryspil and Lviv international airports after the end of the Russia-Ukraine war.
