DB Schenker, Lufthansa Cargo extend SAF deal till October

 DB Schenker and Lufthansa Cargo have decided to continue their fossil-free freighter flights between Frankfurt (FRA) and Shanghai (PVG) until at least October 2022.


By utilising sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and additional upstream compensation, they will save another 21,000 tons of CO2e.

"Lufthansa Cargo and DB Schenker have saved 31,000 tons of CO2e since starting their cooperation at the end of 2020. The weekly flight rotation continues to be the world's only regular full charter fully covered by SAF. On March 25, the partners will conduct their 100th joint greenhouse gas-neutral flight," according to an official statement from DB Schenker." It is our unshaken mission to build a carbon-neutral future for our customers and society at large," says Thorsten Meincke, Global Board Member for Air & Ocean Freight, DB Schenker. "With our long-term partner Lufthansa Cargo, we will now continue our carbon-neutral flight offer as well as the financial commitment. Alternative fuels help us to realise change, not just as a vision for the future but today. We would love to welcome even more customers who want to walk the talk with us."
