Successfully implemented: The first of several scheduled charter flights to Shanghai organized by DACHSER

Due to the coronavirus epidemic, many airlines have discontinued their flights to China, leading to capacity bottlenecks in the market. The DACHSER Global Management Air team is therefore organizing its own charter flights to China. The first of several scheduled charter flights to Shanghai has now been successfully completed. On this flight, DACHSER transported various medical supplies.

In response to the restricted air freight capacity situation caused by COVID-19, DACHSER Air & Sea Logistics has drawn up a charter contingency plan. As a result, customers can currently rely on a robust and reliable premium flight service from Frankfurt to China.
