DACHSER CHARTERS WORLD'S LARGEST CARGO AIRCRAFT
December 28, 2021

Dachser said its air and sea logistics teams have chartered the world's largest cargo aircrafts, the Antonovs AN-124 and AN-225.

 

The aircrafts transport medical goods from China to Austria on multiple occasions for a customer, after which Dachser redistributed the goods through its overland network.

 

Dachser said on December 7, the Antonov An-225 landed late in the evening at Linz Airport in Hörsching, Austria. The freighter had departed two days earlier from Tianjin Airport in China.

 

Taking into account the current Corona measures, the entire cargo was reloaded immediately after landing onto around 20 trucks from DACHSER European Logistics for further distribution, it added.

"This was just the start. Another seven flights with medical supplies are still expected in Linz from Tianjin and Chengdu. Their cargo will also be delivered to the customers again by Dachser European Logistics after landing," Dachser said.
