DHL Express and Boeing announced that the world-leading express service provider has placed an order for six additional 777 Freighters. The purchase takes DHL Express’ order book total to 28 777 Freighters since it placed its first direct order in 2018 for today’s largest and most capable twin-engine freighter.
“With the order of six new, large widebody freighter aircraft, we continue to invest in our future and further enhance the capability and reach of our global air network. The Boeing 777 Freighter is the most fuel-efficient aircraft in its class and will connect DHL’s global hubs in Cincinnati, Leipzig and Hong Kong as well as serving other key markets,” said Geoff Kehr, senior vice president, Global Air Fleet Management, DHL Express.
