Lufthansa Cargo has added Hanoi as a new destination to its global B777F route network for the winter flight schedule 2022/2023.
The inaugural flight took place on November 2 from Frankfurt. With a stop in Mumbai, the Boeing 777F reached Hanoi on schedule on November 3. Lufthansa Cargo has been flying to Hanoi twice a week since then. In view of the existing twice-weekly flights to Ho Chi Minh City, the cargo airline is thus doubling its capacity to Vietnam and is the only carrier to connect the capital Hanoi with Frankfurt.
All freighter services to Vietnam are operated by AeroLogic with Boeing 777F aircraft. AeroLogic has been a joint venture between DHL Express and Lufthansa Cargo since 2007. Lufthansa Cargo's long-haul fleet consists of a total of 16 Boeing 777F aircraft and five of these aircraft are operated by AeroLogic, with all flights flown and marketed under a Lufthansa flight number. Each aircraft has a cargo capacity up to 103 tonnes, allocated to 27 container positions on the main deck and ten standard pallets on the lower deck, and a range of 9,045 km.
