   Fly Khiva has performed commercial services with its first leased ex-Icelandair Cargo Boeing 767-300F since May 2024 and is now in talks over further capacity from its Icelandic partner, as confirmed by Loftleidir.
   -I cannot confirm that two of Icelandair's Boeing B757-300 are going to FlyKhiva, but we can confirm that it is highly likely that they will go there in the next couple of months, first on a ACMI basis, and then on an Aircraft+Maintenance basis, says Johann Gisli Johansson, Loftleidir Director Sales, Marketing & Consulting.
   In contrast to the Boeing 767-300 freighter aircraft now serving With Fly Khiva, the two Icelandair Boeing 757-300 aircraft are configured for passenger services and may open up for Fly Khiva to enter the passenger service market as well.   
   Based at Tashkent, Fly Khiva is part of the FlyKhiva Group was set up in 2021 with the aim of developing passenger, cargo, and business aviation, as well as operating domestic and international flights.
