Martinair Holland Postbus 7507 1118 ZG Schiphol The Netherlands

Martinair is a long established Dutch airline owned 50% by KLM and 50% by Maersk. With brand awareness in the Netherlands upwards of 90%, a market share of more than 30% in the Dutch vacation segment, and rated 15 on the list of the world’s biggest cargo carriers, Martinair is certainly a major player. More than half of Martinair’s revenues are generated by Martinair Cargo. Martinair has an established international reputation as the biggest transporter of perishables: fresh flowers, vegetables and fruit. In-flight climate control ensures that the flowers arrive at their destinations in perfect condition. In addition to flowers, vegetables and fruit, we transport all manner of cargo: cows to the Middle East, horses to international events, the latest models of cars, computers and so much more. Scheduled services are offered from Amsterdam to North and South America, the Middle and Far East, Africa and Australia using Boeing 747 and MD-11 equipment.

Each year, close to two million people head off from the Netherlands to sunnier climes on board Martinair aircraft. Charter flights to popular vacation destinations in and around the Mediterranean are operated in cooperation with the Netherlands’ top tour operators. Martinair also maintains an impressive list of scheduled intercontinental services to far-away destinations including Florida, Central America, South America, Canada, the Caribbean and the Far East.

During 2007 APG supported Martinair with the re-delivery of two Boeing B747-200F to their Lessor. In addition APG supported Martinair with the delivery of their three A320-200’s to Etihad Airlines. APG was also contracted to support the fleet introduction of the newly acquired B747-400BCF’s. On behalf of Deucalion, APG performed during 2006 a pre-purchase inspection and subsequently became the Lease Manager for one Airbus A320-232 on lease to Martinair.
