Cargolux Airlines will take delivery of its 10th Boeing 747-8 freighter on July 25.
Dirk Reich, the carrier’s president and chief executive officer, said that the delivery of the plane will help bring the fleet average age down to 5.8 years.
“Apart from the increased fuel efficiency and reduced noise footprint, the 747-8F is the ideal aircraft for the implementation of our dual hub strategy between Zhengzhou and Luxembourg. Our goal is indeed to operate multiple daily connections between both locations with the -8F,” Reich said.
