Strengthening Sino-European networks
On 7 January a Boeing B777 freighter loaded with diverse goods departed from Ezhou Huahu airport, embarking its inaugural flight to Frankfurt (Germany). This marked the official launch of DB Schenker’s regular Ezhou–Frankfurt cargo service, establishing another significant air logistics corridor between central China and Europe.
The regular cargo route will be operated by Etihad Cargo and will depart from Ezhou every Tuesday, with a stopover in Abu Dhabi, before arriving in Frankfurt the following day. The route will carry a broad range of cargo categories, including e-commerce goods, high-tech, electronic and industrial goods, as well as consumer and retail products and automotive parts.
The estimated annual cargo volume is expected to come to around 5,200 t. DB Schenker will provide stable freight capacity to support Sino-European trade on this route. (cj)
