DB Schenker has commenced its India air cargo charter service, which is part of its Global Flight Operations Program launched to bridge the capacity gap. Boeing 747 freighters will be used for the service to transport cargo between India, Europe and the US (Munich—Chennai—Chicago RFD). Cargo carried on the flights will include healthcare and temperature-sensitive pharma, e-consumer, automotive and industrial products. Vishal Sharma, chief executive of DB Schenker, India and Indian sub-continent, said: “The introduction of our second flight operations is a significant step towards reinforcing our Global Flight Operations Program to meet the growing logistics demand of the customers in India.”
