    🎨 A masterpiece on the move 🌍   From Frankfurt to Japan and back again, a priceless Monet painting is taking the ultimate art world tour with #LufthansaCargo!   Carefully packaged and protected, "Houses by the Bank of the River Zaan" is embarking on a journey to museums in Tokyo and Osaka, thanks to the expert handling of Hasenkamp and our Art Cube at Frankfurt Airport. With top-notch security measures and climate control, the painting is in safe hands as it travels the globe.   This special journey via the FRA CargoHub not only showcases the international reach of art but also highlights the importance of cultural exchange and support for the arts, which is also an important topic for Fraport AG, who shared this movie with us.   Congratulations to Fraport, who celebrated their 100th anniversary in 2024! Your dedication to #EnablingGlobalBusiness and supporting cultural exchange is truly remarkable. Here's to another century of success and innovation in the world of aviation and beyond.   We are proud to play a part in enabling this global art exchange.

    🎉✈️ Celebrating 30 years of Lufthansa Cargo! 🎉✈️   30 years ago, on 30 November 1994, #LufthansaCargo was registered as a joint stock corporation, setting the stage for incredible growth and innovation over the last three decades. As we reflect on our journey, we're excited to take you on a #throwbackthursday… uhm #throwbacksaturday trip down memory lane, highlighting some of the most memorable moments from our history.   1994 - 2004: The early years saw the expansion of our cargo fleet from 737-300F and DC-8-73F to 747-200 freighters and MD-11F. The digitization of logistics processes started, and as the first cargo airline we introduced innovative products and solutions customized to your needs. We also made history with our first round-the-world flight in cooperation with Air New Zealand and the launch of the first global cargo alliance, WOW, together with SAS Cargo and Singapore Airlines Cargo.   2005 - 2014: This decade was all about modernization and expansion. We upgraded our entire freighter fleet, spun off Jettainer for more efficient logistics, and founded AeroLogic together with DHL Express to expand our long-haul capacities. Not to mention, we opened the Frankfurt Animal Lounge and the largest hub for temperature-sensitive freight in Europe, our Pharma Hub Frankfurt. In 2013, the carrier entered into a partnership with the “Aktion Deutschland Hilft e.V.” alliance to provide faster support in the event of a crisis. In the same year, the freighter fleet is modernized again – the first of five B777F joins the fleet with a big roll-in event.   2015 - 2024: Recent years have seen further digitization, expansion of services, and the modernization of our fleet and hubs. In 2020, the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic changed our world. We secured important supply chains and transported urgently needed vaccines and face masks. To do this, even passenger aircraft were temporarily converted into freighters – so-called “preighters”. In the fall, the world's first CO2 neutral freighter rotation takes place, in cooperation with DB Schenker. In 2021, the last MD-11 freighter leaves our fleet, which is then converted to an all-B777F fleet. In the following year, we add short- and medium-haul routes to the network with A321 freighters. This enables 13 new stations to be opened worldwide in 2023. In 2024 for the first time, A321 freighters are taking off from the Munich hub. In addition, we are reintroducing a trans-pacific flight to our schedule, connecting Vietnam directly with the USA for the first time.   As we celebrate our 30th anniversary, we're excited to look ahead to the next 30 years of Lufthansa Cargo, embracing new opportunities, technologies, and sustainable practices as we continue to #EnablingGlobalBusiness.

    Lufthansa Cargo and Maersk launch cooperation to support decarbonization of airfreight ✈️🌱 400 metric tonnes of SAF to be used in the remainder of 2024 #LufthansaCargo and A.P. Moller - Maersk (Maersk) have signed an agreement to promote the decarbonization of airfreight through the use of #SustainableAviationFuel (SAF). We will use 400 metric tonnes of #SAF on behalf of Maersk in the remainder of 2024, which is an important contribution in the year-end business with traditionally high cargo volumes. The expected reduction of CO2 emissions corresponds to at least 1,200 metric tonnes. “Cutting greenhouse gas emissions from airfreight is one of the most challenging tasks within the decarbonization of global logistics and supply chains. This is why we are excited to partner with Lufthansa Cargo in this important task,” says Morten Bo Christiansen, Head of Energy Transition at A.P. Moller - Maersk. As one of the globally largest logistics companies, Maersk aims to reach net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2040 across all modes of transport as well as other business areas like warehousing and container terminals. “The uptake and availability of SAF in the aviation industry is still limited. Our agreement with Lufthansa Cargo enables Maersk to contribute to an increase in the uptake.” “SAF is a key technological enabler for more sustainable flying and essential for the energy transition in aviation,” says our CEO Ashwin Bhat. “With Maersk we are jointly making a valuable contribution with the new agreement. At the same time, more sustainable flying also requires major efforts for a modern fleet and increased efficiency in flight operations. It is only through this interplay that change can be achieved sustainably.” With our Boeing 777 freighter fleet, we continue to rely on the most modern and efficient aircraft in its class. #EnablingGlobalBusiness #Together4Sustainability

    Green desert - Egypt's sustainable agriculture takes off 🇪🇬   From the heart of the Nile Delta to tables across Europe and beyond, Egypt’s innovative agricultural industry is flourishing - and sustainability is leading the charge. This fertile land, transformed into a green oasis by the world’s longest river, boasts agricultural excellence, producing crops like sweet potatoes, strawberries, and beans with exceptional quality and efficiency. But it’s not just about yield; it’s about making every step greener.   #LufthansaCargo enables Egypt’s agriculture sector by connecting these remarkable harvests to global markets while focusing on #sustainability. Farms like ICAPP, Green Egypt, and Belco employ cutting-edge techniques: solar-powered energy, biological pest control, and water-reducing technics that redefine farming. What’s more, their community-first approach, such as empowering their local communities and especially women through employment initiatives.   For logistics, airfreight remains crucial for transporting Egypt’s perishable goods swiftly and efficiently. We go beyond providing reliable networks; we’re paving the way for greener skies with innovations like AeroSHARK technology, #SustainableAviationFuel, and carbon-offset solutions. Together with partners like Venus International Transport, we are setting new standards in sustainable airfreight, enabling Egypt’s agricultural treasures to thrive in global markets.   This is more than shipping - it’s a shared commitment to growth, responsibility, and connection. Together with Egypt’s farms and forwarders we exemplify how local ingenuity meets global opportunity.   Read more on this inspiring story in the link in our comments. #EnablingGlobalBusiness #LufthansaCargo #Together4Sustainability

    Collaboration at its best: Successful shipment of Mpox vaccines to Kinshasa Our team in Brussels is thrilled to have been part of the successful uplift of a critical shipment of 100,000 mpox vaccines to Kinshasa on SN357 on November 14, a mission made possible through seamless collaboration with key stakeholders. This milestone underscores our commitment to global health and our role in facilitating critical humanitarian efforts. This shipment was the result of a joint effort involving the EU Civil Protection & Humanitarian Aid, the German Embassy in Brussels, Brussels Airport, Swissport and World Courier. Thanks to all our partners! This achievement would not have been possible without the hard work and dedication of our trusted collaborators and our local #LufthansaCargo team. The operation demonstrates our ability to manage complex logistics and underscores the importance of partnerships in addressing global health challenges. The shipment's arrival in Kinshasa marks a significant step in containing the Mpox outbreak and safeguarding public health in the region.

    time:matters and Shenzhen Airport Group Co., Ltd. strengthen collaboration regarding logistics handling services Our subsidiary time:matters GmbH and Shenzhen Airport Group Co., Ltd. have agreed to deepen their relationship with a focus on logistics handling services. Shenzhen Airport, located in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, is a key player in the #eCommerce industry, experiencing a significant increase in air transport volume for cross-border e-commerce. We have been operating a scheduled freighter connection between Shenzhen and Frankfurt twice a week since July 2024, integrating the logistics advantages of both international hubs to serve the growing demand in the e-commerce segment, especially to Europe. Furthermore, together with Shenzhen Airport Group Co., Ltd., we have been successfully operating the International Cargo Centre Shenzhen (ICCS), officially registered as Shenzhen Airport International Cargo Terminal Co., Ltd. since 2004 as joint shareholders. Last week, time:matters Courier Terminals GmbH, a wholly owned subsidiary of time:matters GmbH, signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the International Cargo Centre Shenzhen, marking a significant step towards a successful collaboration in delivering high-performance logistics handling services. The two companies have agreed to build a future-oriented relationship. “With the International Cargo Centre Shenzhen (ICCS) having delivered high-quality cargo handling services for the past 20 years, this collaboration represents a forward-looking partnership in the logistics industry further enabling global business”, stated our CEO Ashwin Bhat, who witnessed the ceremonial signing in Frankfurt. Wong Ching Hao Ben, General Manager of Shenzhen Airport International Cargo Terminal Co., Ltd. shared at the MoU signing ceremony, “It’s the highlight of ICCS overall corporate development strategy, which is in line with Shenzhen Airport Group’s strategy and China’s national strategic planning of the Greater Bay Area.” “The handling services and drive for innovation of both time:matters and ICCS complement each other ideally, with time:matters offering fastest freight handling at highest process quality on routes that run via our Courier Terminals in Frankfurt (FRA) and Shanghai (PVG), amongst others”, said Bernhard zur Strassen, CEO of time:matters GmbH. “This collaboration is expected to bring mutual benefits for both parties, and further strengthen our global growth path in the logistics industry.” #EnablingGlobalBusiness #LufthansaCargo
