Another A321 freighter for Lufthansa Cargo
From October 2022, Lufthansa Cargo will offer its customers additional capacities in its medium-haul network on specially converted Airbus A321 freighters. The first cargo flight of its kind took off from Frankfurt bound for Dublin in March 2022.
Due to a positive response from the market and continuing high demand from the e-commerce and same-day segments, a second aircraft of this type will enter scheduled service from October. Like the first A321F, the second aircraft will also be based at the Frankfurt hub and operated by Lufthansa City Line under a wet lease agreement.
As a group company, Lufthansa City Line has worked intensively in recent months on the technical and operational preparation of the first two converted aircraft of this type to be deployed in Germany. The new destinations in the intra-European network include Birmingham (BHX), London (LHR) and Madrid (MAD). (cj)
