Lufthansa Cargo had in 2015 a reduction in its volume of cargo and mail of 2% (1.6 million tons) compared to 2014.

The German carrier claims to have maintained its leading position in the European market, despite the decrease in sales and installed capacity.

"Last year was not easy for the air cargo industry," says the CEO of Lufthansa Cargo, Peter Gerber. "The turbulence in the Chinese market and the strong dollar have affected many industries, pushing us to the limits. Strikes by pilots and cabin staff also affected the operation of Lufthansa Cargo. "

Despite the difficult market environment, Lufthansa Cargo continued to focus on its own product and its network last year, having added new destinations such as Turkmenistan, Vietnam and Brazil to its network.
