LH Cargo adds to 777 freighter fleet

5/20/2011 10:06:33 AM

Lufthansa Cargo has finalised an order for five Boeing 777 freighters valued at US$1.35 billion, based on current list prices. The German aviation giant indicated its intention to buy the new all-cargo planes in March to help Lufthansa Cargo modernise and expand its fleet. AeroLogic, a joint venture of Lufthansa Cargo and DHL Express, became the fourth carrier to operate the 777 Freighter in May 2009. Cargo Facts reported that Lufthansa has not yet decided whether to operate the five freighters itself, or to have some or all of them operated by Aerologic.   Cargonews Asia
