Shorten average transit time
Russian airline company "Aeroflot - Russian international airlines" and international express-delivery company DHL International signed an agreement on delivering cargo weighing over 50 kilograms. This agreement means DHL can shorten average transit time by half a day, as Aeroflot has direct flights to Europe, USA and south-eastern Asia. This also minimizes the risk of delays and losses of cargo which is higher on non-direct flights. DHL has been using Aeroflot planes for 4 years already and not a single cargo has been lost. This airline has competitive prices which allows DHL_s clients to save on heavy cargo delivery, the report reads. Currently DHL also works with such Russian airline companies as Transaero, Archangelsk airlines, Siberia, Volga-Air, Vnukovo airlines and Nizhni Novgorod airlines.
