Lufthansa Cargo recently added its third Airbus A321 freighter with an aim to expand its e-commerce capabilities. The carrier plans to add a fourth A321 to the fleet later this year with plans for further fleer expansion as the carrier looks forward to expand its operations.

The aircraft conversion took place in Singapore and was carried out by EFW.

The first commercial flight took place on Malta-Milan route.

Antonio Di Martino, head of sales and handling for Italy & Malta, Lufthansa Cargo said: “This route Malta-Milan is one of our shortest freighter routes, but of great value for Malta as it opens up new markets to the small island. After two months of frequencies, we are pleased with the development and see a lot of vulnerable and dangerous goods, but also live animals on this routing. We are glad our A321F fleet is getting stronger with an additional aircraft.”
