National Airlines, a wholly owned subsidiary of National Air Cargo
Holdings, announced today its continued expansion with the receipt of
authority from the United States Department of Transportation to conduct
charter passenger service aboard its Boeing 757-200 aircraft both
domestically and internationally.

National's inaugural 757-200 passenger aircraft offers seating for 164
passengers (12 first/business class and 152 premium coach class) and includes
flexible on-board services tailored to meet customer preferences. "National
is extremely proud to bring our trademark excellence to the passenger market.
We look forward to complimenting our global cargo services by offering
customized non-stop passenger service to travel consolidators, businesses and
sports teams whether their destination is within North America, Europe, South
America
, the Middle East or the Caribbean," said Steven Harrison, President,
National Airlines. Aircraft configuration and service has been designed with
passengers' wellbeing in mind to include economy seats configured for extra
leg room (34 inch pitch), in flight entertainment systems, and menus tailored
to the charterer's budget and preference.

Cargo freight forwarding infrastructure to better serve our customers
globally," said Christopher Alf, Chairman, National Air Cargo Holdings.
"We've been looking forward to operating passenger flights for our customers
across the globe for some time. We're now able to deliver both passengers and
cargo anywhere in the World." National's expansion efforts will now focus
exclusively on gaining US government operating authority for its three Boeing
747-400 freighters to augment its existing fleet of DC-8 aircraft. The
