JD Airlines Announces Inaugural International Cargo Flight Connecting Shenzhen and Ho Chi Minh City
September 19, 2023 – JD Airlines, the air cargo division of JD Logistics, today announced its first international all-cargo route connecting Shenzhen, China and Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. A B737-800BCF cargo aircraft successfully carried out the first round-trip flight today, marking a pivotal moment for JD Airlines since its operations began in October 2022.
In collaboration with airline service company CSAA, JD Airlines will operate the trade route three times a week, on Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays.

Leveraging the advantageous location and service capabilities of Shenzhen Bao’an International Airport, JD Airlines has successfully established an expansive air cargo network that seamlessly interconnects regions in the North, South, and East of China.
With the launch of the inaugural flight between Shenzhen and Ho Chi Minh City, JD Airlines remains committed to expanding its global reach and enhancing its international transportation capabilities. Plans are underway to explore additional international routes connecting to key markets in Southeast Asia, South Asia, South Korea, and Japan, among other regions.
Since 2017, JD Logistics has been developing its air cargo division in collaboration with airline partners. Currently, JD Logistics has an extensive network of over 1,000 air transportation routes, covering more than 100 airports worldwide. This network delivers a coverage rate of more than 95 percent for its express air delivery services across multiple cities in China. The formation of JD Airlines, previously known as JD Logistics Airlines, accommodates the growing demand for air freight services, while also enabling JD Logistics to establish a more agile, reliable, and efficient supply chain.

JD Health Dispatches Expert Physician and Donates Critical Supplies for Earthquake Relief in Morocco
by Vivian Yang
JD Health is rapidly mobilizing resources to aid the ongoing earthquake relief efforts in Morocco. On September 14th, we dispatched an expert orthopedic doctor to collaborate with the international disaster response team led by the Beijing One Heart Sphere Charity Foundation. Additionally, we’re coordinating the delivery of essential medical supplies to support the mission.
Dr. Zhang Haijing, a veteran in medical relief with nearly two decades of specialized experience, will represent JD Health in Morocco. His extensive background includes involvement in flood relief, earthquake rescues, counter-terrorism operations, and mass event medical assistance. Since joining JD Health, Dr. Zhang has provided complimentary consultations to hundreds during emergency rescues, drawing from his expertise in wilderness first aid and medical rescue.
The volunteer team will depart at midnight on September 14th, Beijing time. They will bring an initial shipment of critical medical supplies, generously donated by JD Health in partnership with China’s leading medical product manufacturer, HYNAUT. The shipment includes essentials such as iodine swabs, sterile disinfectant swabs, waterproof dressings, adhesive tapes, surgical dressings, non-woven bandages, and N95 masks, among others.
At JD Health, we take immense pride in our team of full-time doctors—92% of whom have over a decade of clinical experience. In addition to offering daily online medical consultations, our doctors are committed to humanitarian work. They have been on the front lines of various disaster relief operations, both domestically and internationally. Following the devastating floods in Henan and Shanxi in 2021, our team provided critical on-site medical support and facilitated the donation of essential disinfection and pharmaceutical supplies. Earlier this year, when a severe earthquake hit West Asia, we were quick to mobilize resources, offering crucial support to local relief efforts. And just last month, we sent doctors to Zhuozhou in Hebei Province, an area heavily impacted by persistent torrential rains.
