21OCT2013
Lufthansa Cargo (GEC, Frankfurt Int'l) is considering forming a cargo airline alliance akin to that of the passenger alliance, Star Alliance, CEO Karl Ulrich Garnadt has announced. According to the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, Mr Garnadt is quoted as saying, "We want to work with partners that provide us with access to new markets and additional connections." A decision on whom the alliance would be founded with is expected by mid-2014. In light of the current depressed global freight market, he added that the cause of failure of past similar initiatives had now been isolated. He listed the benefits of such an alliance as: better utilization of aircraft and improved quality control across the board as well as a greater choice of destinations and connections to the customer.
