DHL Express is entering into an operating agreement with Central Airlines to deploy two DHL B777 freighters after signing a letter of intent, the first time the company has done so with a local Chinese cargo airline.

The two freighters will be operated by Central Airlines and will sport a dual DHL and Central Airlines livery. According to DHL, the B777 is the world’s largest, longest range and most capable twin-engine freighter, reducing freight CO2 emissions by 18% compared to the legacy B747-400s.

“The signing of the letter of intent is an important milestone for both parties in the process of establishing a partnership and is another important step for DHL Express to deliver its commitment to long term development in China, and to seek and deepen its cooperation with Chinese companies,” said Dongming Wu, CEO China at DHL Express.

“The partnership with Central Airlines will further strengthen our capacity on intercontinental cargo routes from China while providing more convenience and higher efficiency for Chinese enterprises to expand their businesses globally.”

Annie Hou, chairman of Central Airlines, added, “We are very pleased to establish a partnership with DHL Express and are full of expectations and confidence in the prospects of cooperation between the two sides. The partnership fits well with our current B777 freighter operations planning. With the two additional B777s, we will provide stronger capacity to support DHL Express and contribute to the development of cross-border e-commerce and promoting China’s supply chain and Chinese firms going abroad.”

DHL Express operates over 300 dedicated aircraft across its global network of 220 countries and territories. Central Airlines operates more than 10 B737F and B777F freighters and has launched over 40 domestic and international cargo routes.
