Deutsche Post AG said Tuesday that its express division has
ordered eight new 777 freighters from U.S. aviation company Boeing
Co.
The German postal, freight and logistics group said the aircraft
will allow DHL Express to expand its intercontinental air network
to meet ever-increasing customer demand.
The first aircraft deliveries are scheduled for 2022, Deutsche
Post said.
DHL's new aircraft will follow a previous purchase from Boeing,
which was made in 2018, of 14 B777F aircraft. Ten of those have
already been delivered to the company.
The agreement includes an option to purchase four additional
freighters, Deutsche Post said. The company did not disclose the
financial terms of the contract.
