DHL Aviation is a division of DHL Express (owned by Deutsche Post World Net) responsible for providing air transport capacity. It is not a single airline but refers to several airlines owned, co-owned or chartered by DHL Express. In 2009, Deutsche Post World Net rebranded to Deutsche Post DHL (DPDHL).
Overview
Deutsche Post owns four main airlines, which provide services by region:
European Air Transport was responsible for the major part of the European network and for longhaul services to the Middle East and Africa. The airline will be moving the remainder of its operation to Leipzig, Germany, and transfer its AOC to the German registry. From its hub in Leipzig it will operate a fleet of 10 Boeing 757-200SF Freighters.
DHL Air UK is based at East Midlands Airport, was purchased by DHL in 1989, and has since 2000 been operating a fleet of 22 Boeing 757-200SF freighters on intra-European services. Since 2009, DHL Air UK has been operating a fleet of three new-built Boeing 767-300ERF Freighters, primarily on trans-atlantic routes. The airline has an order for a further three Boeing 767-300ERF aircraft, to be delivered in 2010 and 2011.
DHL Aero Expreso is the subsidiary in Central and South America, operating a fleet of Boeing 727-200 Freighters in Central- and South America, as well as serving destinations in the Caribbean and Florida.
