A UK cargo airline has entered administration, leaving flights halted and nearly 200 workers out of a job. The company is European Cargo Limited, a Bournemouth-based freight carrier that operated long-haul cargo services from Bournemouth Airport and built its business around converted Airbus A340-600 aircraft.

Stuart Morris, Robert Fishman and David Soden of Teneo Financial Advisory Limited were appointed joint administrators of European Cargo Limited on June 3, 2026. Aviation trade reports say 178 employees have already been made redundant, with the collapse linked to rising operating costs, higher fuel prices and reduced flying activity.
