FMG, the Munich Airport operating company, and Lufthansa Cargo AG have signed a memorandum of understanding in which both parties have reaffirmed their resolve to “work together to take Munich Airport to the top of the rankings among its competitors in the European cargo segments.”
Key to this strategic growth are joint development, design and utilisation as well as expansion of the freight facilities at Munich Airport, including the regular integration of Munich into the cargo flight network of Lufthansa or its partner companies.
Lufthansa’s passenger flights have already been carrying large quantities of co-loaded freight for many years and a team of experts from FMG and Lufthansa Cargo will begin working together in the fall of this year on the systematic development of the freight business.
