Deutsche Bahn subsidiary, Schenker, has launched a new round-trip service, from Dubai to Toledo (Ohio, US) via Frankfurt/Hahn, specially tailored to address the needs of customers in the electronics, automotive, mechanical engineering and garment industries.
An Emirates SkyCargo aircraft will depart Dubai International Airport every Saturday at 23h30 local time, to arrive in Hahn six hours later. Cargo destined for Europe will be offloaded, and additional shipments for the US market will be taken aboard. Eight hours later, the aircraft will land in Toledo, Ohio.
There the largest and highest-capacity hub of the combined Schenker and BAX organisations for the US market will feed the shipments into the American distribution network.
On the return flight, the aircraft will arrive in Hahn in the early morning and in Dubai in the afternoon.
The new flight is closely tied to an intermodal logistics service provided by Schenker on the main routes between Asia and Europe.
Schenker also provides a similar service from Asia to Vancouver for the American market.
