The U.S. Department of Transportation has named  Evergreen International Airlines as a new all-cargo entrant in the U.S.-China aviation market.

Evergreen, if granted final authority, will operate six round-trip flights per week to Shanghai from New York with additional traffic stops in Chicago, Dallas/Fort Worth and Columbus, Ohio.

The department said Evergreen would offer the first scheduled U.S.-carrier all-cargo service to China from both New York and Columbus. It also noted Evergreen was the only applicant that would use the entire capacity of its aircraft for China services. In addition, the Department cited Evergreen’s experience operating in the U.S.-Asia market, including its U.S.-China charter services.

Note that all restrictions on scheduled U.S.-China all-cargo services will be lifted in March 2011.
