At the Farnborough International Airshow, DHL Express announced today that the world’s leading international express service provider has placed an order for 14 Boeing 777 Freighters, which also includes options and purchase rights for 7 additional aircraft. The delivery of the first four planes is expected to be completed in 2019. Overall, these 14 intercontinental plane replacements are capacity neutral, but operational wise with significant cost, efficiency and reliability benefits. These state-of-the-art aircraft will reduce CO2 emissions by 18 per cent versus the aircraft being replaced.
