Abu Dhabi-based Etihad Airways has extended its wet-lease contracts with Maximus Air Cargo for two Airbus A300-600 regional freighters until August 2012.

Etihad has wet-leased the two aircraft from Maximus since June 2009.

It uses the freighters to operate both scheduled and charter services between the Middle East, the Indian subcontinent, East Africa, and China.
