Atlas Air Worldwide Holdings (AAWW) will operate two Boeing 747-8
freighters for DHL Express under an ACMI agreement beginning in the
fourth quarter.
Operated by Atlas Air in the Polar Air Cargo Worldwide express network, the aircraft will be deployed in the Asian and transpacific markets and will replace two 747-400Fs in service for DHL Express.
“With these new 747-8 freighters, DHL Express will have increased capacity and revenue-generating capability in one of the fastest developing regions of the world,” AAWW president and CEO William Flynn said.
Atlas Air ordered nine 747-8Fs and expects to take delivery of the final two aircraft in the first half of 2013 (ATW Daily News, Sept. 23, 2011).
