Lufthansa Cargo christened the latest addition to its own freighter fleet underlining its purpose of enabling global business. The aircraft with the registration D-ALFL has been named in line with the ‘Say hello around the world’ concept, with which the leading cargo carrier has been naming its aircraft acknowledging the markets within its route network since 2013: ‘¡Hola Argentina!’, highlighting Argentina's connection to the global airfreight market through Lufthansa Cargo. The cargo carrier has been flying between South America's second-largest country and the Frankfurt hub since 1970.

“South America is and will continue to be an important growth market for Lufthansa Cargo. Especially in the perishables industry, we have built strong partnerships with our customers over the last three decades. With the christening of our latest freighter, we are emphasizing our commitment to Argentina and, in line with our motto of ‘enabling global business’, are also committing to this market and our customers,” said Ashwin Bhat, CEO of Lufthansa Cargo, during the ceremony at Buenos Aires Airport.
