Serve Air Congo  

Serve Air is one of Dem. Rep. of Congo’s leading private sector cargo airlines in its formative stages based in Kinshasa (DRC).

In 2009, Serve Air introduced several B727-200 Super 27 Freighter aircrafts to their fleet, to serve the African cargo market with DRC. Currently four 737-300’s are being added to the fleet. Their mid-term objective is to replace the ageing 727’s over a 2-year period with the 737 aircraft. 3 Airbus 737’s have already been added to the fleet while the 727’s are still active. Serve Air is led by a highly experienced and motivated management team, driven by under-serviced markets and based on a solid business plan.
