“Cargo customers worldwide value speed, convenience and reliability,” said United Cargo President Jan Krems, as United Airlines and Lufthansa Cargo brought their previously announced air cargo joint venture into practice May 3.
   In a joint press release May 4th the two carriers assure—the joint is jumping!
   “Through our joint venture, United and Lufthansa Cargo offer transatlantic shippers more options that produce these benefits – including increased frequencies on a combined network accessible through either partner’s booking channels,” Jan said.
   Peter Gerber, Chairman and CEO of Lufthansa Cargo noted:
   “Co-location of our warehouses, in Munich for example, is an additional benefit, with customers needing only one location for export drop-off and import delivery.”
