Atlas Air, a subsidiary of Atlas Air Worldwide, has signed a long-term agreement to provide dedicated airfreight services for DSV, one of the world\u2019s largest freight forwarders and a leading transport and logistics provider, according to an official release from Atlas Air. <\/p>\n
Under the agreement, Atlas Air will operate one of its newly delivered 777-200Fs exclusively on behalf of DSV, providing control over freight capacity, access to worldwide operating capabilities, and the benefit of Atlas Air\u2019s extensive air traffic rights and operational flexibility. These services will support DSV across Asia, Europe, and the United States, including a critical link between DSV\u2019s hub in Huntsville, Alabama (HSV), and Luxembourg (LUX), one of its most important and long-standing trade lanes. <\/p>\n
The 777F will strengthen DSV\u2019s global network, offering extended range and high payload capacity while delivering improved fuel efficiency and lower emissions. <\/p>\n

With the leading fleet of large widebody freighters, an extensive operating footprint, and comprehensive traffic rights, we have expertise in tailoring dedicated solutions that enable our customers to serve demand where they see it. We appreciate the trust DSV places in Atlas Air and look forward to continuing to provide them with high-quality service and supporting DSV\u2019s growth.\u201d <\/p>\n
Stefan Krikken, Senior Vice President, DSV, adds: \u201cOur agreement with Atlas Air marks an important step in growing and strengthening DSV\u2019s international operations. The addition of a 777 freighter allows us to further enhance service to our customers, with greater control over capacity, schedules, and connectivity. The Huntsville\u2013Luxembourg corridor is a vital trade lane for us, and this new programme ensures we can continue to deliver consistent, high-quality performance across key transcontinental routes.\u201d <\/p>\n
