One
of the all-time greats working in public relations and the world of air
cargo is Nils Haupt of Lufthansa. Nils departed Frankfurt am Main a few
years ago to come to America and carry on similar duties on the passenger
side of the airline, working from the Hempstead Turnpike offices in East
Meadow, New York. We’ve just learned that Nils will depart the airline
business on September 21.
It turns out Nils has received an “offer
he can’t refuse,” joining new top management at Hamburg-based
Hapag-Lloyd, where he will put his expertise at work in “the opportunity
of a lifetime,” as he puts it.
“I am leaving beloved Lufthansa with
mixed feelings, but am happy to be back in cargo, although my work will
be on the ocean side,” Nils said as he packed his suitcase for the
September 21 changeover.
Pictured with Geoffrey Arend a few years
ago receiving a rare FlyingTypers Achievement Award “for outstanding
contributions to air cargo,” Nils will be feted for his 12 years
of service on September 16 with a grand departure celebration at the Austrian
Consulate General (31 East 69th Street) in Manhattan, New York, at 6 pm.

Nils moves from air to sea, but will still
be in the transportation arts, spinning his special magic.
Every good wish, Nils. Flossie
