XP Express Parcel Systems was founded in 1972 as City Courier by a few Amsterdam students who provided fast courier services within the capital on bicycles and motorcycles. The American courier company Purolator bought the company and after a few years sold it to the Dutch Vendex International, which changed the name City Courier to XP Express Parcel Systems. XP subsequently became a subsidiary of KLM Cargo. After a few years, KLM no longer considered courier services as its core business and sold XP to Global Distribution Express World Wide, jointly owned by the Australian TNT and the postal services of the Netherlands, Sweden, Canada, France and Germany. Today, TNT is part of FedEx Corporation. XP Express Parcel Systems operated its own Fokker F.27 Friendship-fleet. Additional capacity was leased from numerous European companies. For the long-term contracts, these leased aircraft, such as this BAe 146-300 of Malmö Aviation, were painted in XP's livery but remained registered in the country of origin.

Magic Blue Airlines, based at Rotterdam Airport, started operations in 2005. The company was owned by Luxembourg-based FN Holding which also owned Farnair Europe. Due to mounting problems and insufficient financials, they had to give up after just under a year. The company had leased 2 BAe ATPs from British Aerospace to carry out a freight service for the Swedish Post. The aircraft were delivered too late and Magic Blue therefore had to pay compensation to the Swedish Postal Service. The company did not have that financial reserves and went bankrupt. A restart was made with a staff of twelve employees rebranding the airline: Magic Bird Cargo. In addition to the two ATPs, two Fokker 50s were also added to the fleet. Again things went wrong and the company went bankrupt in May 2007.
