Air and ocean freight specialist of DHL Group, DHL Global Forwarding, is expanding its dedicated air capacity between Asia and Europe.
DHL Global Forwarding will operate weekly Boeing 777F rotations connecting Shanghai-Leipzig and Hong Kong-Liège, with onward distribution across Europe.
The company has achieved this through the launch of new weekly flights connecting key logistics hubs Shanghai-Leipzig and Liège-Hong Kong.
The new service strengthens DHL’s cross‑business collaboration between DHL Global Forwarding and DHL Express.
The Liège-Hong Kong connection will have a stopover in Tel Aviv; in cooperation with the operating airline partner, the flight may also accommodate limited cargo loading or offloading when required.
The return leg from Hong Kong will feed directly into DHL’s European distribution network.
DHL Global Forwarding global head of air freight, Henk Venema, said: “Expanding our controlled capacity on the Asia-Europe corridor reinforces our commitment to reliability, speed, and resilience for our customers.
“The demand on that trade lane continues to grow at an exceptional pace, and strengthening our network ensures that we stay ahead of customer needs.”
