Midex Airlines is a cargo airline based in the United Arab Emirates. Licenced for both cargo and passenger services in 2007, the airline concentrates on scheduled cargo services. Passenger service never started. Scheduled cargo service has been operated from Al Ain to Paris ORY for few months and subsequently closed due to lack of freight. A300 fleet grounded in May 2012. All crew members laid off without respecting the UAE labor law and the company has been brought to court to settle the dispute in June 2012. One B747-200F is in Jakarta from 2011 for C check. It is not expected to resume operations anytime soon due to missing spare parts. The two additional B747-200F that Midex announced have been bought on the official website never showed up in the UAE with Midex logo.
