Kalitta Air linked to eight‑aircraft Airbus A350F order placed in 2026

Kalitta Air is reportedly the undisclosed customer behind an order for eight Airbus A350F freighters placed earlier in 2026, though the airline has not confirmed the purchase and says it is evaluating the platform for long‑term fleet planning.

The Airbus A350F completed its first flight in August 2026. Kalitta currently operates 37 active heavy cargo aircraft, including 22 Boeing 747‑400F and eight Boeing 777‑200F freighters, with additional aircraft planned across its modern freighter types.
