DHL Express expands its MENA aviation fleet

DHL Express has recently added two new Boeing 767-300Fs to its MENA air fleet, marking a further step in the company’s efforts to enhance its regional aviation network and improve its air capability to better support the region’s logistical demands.

The technologically-advanced, energy-efficient aircraft, which are based out of the company’s regional aviation headquarters in Bahrain, will enable DHL greater operational efficiency and capacities to meet the surge in customer demands.

The new aircraft will increase DHL’s overall load capacity by more than 25 per cent, servicing existing high-demand lanes across the countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council, extended Middle East, Africa & Indian Subcontinent which house some of DHL’s key commercial partners.

“Investments in strengthening our MENA air network continue to form part of our wider strategy to enhance our capabilities in this region and better service high demand destinations with greater speed, reliability and efficiency, ultimately improving service excellence which lies at the heart of DHL’s business model,” commented Richard Gale, head of DHL Aviation Middle East and Africa.
