FEB 24, 2004 (newstodate): Lufthansa Cargo seeks to maintain its footing in the German market with a new scheme of cargo rates adjustments.
Taking effect from April 1, the new rates scheme includes both increases and decreases.
Rates for shipments to the busiest estinations will rise, while on routes with comparably low traffic volumes, they will be adapted to the actual market level - meaning cut.
Lufthansa Cargo will also woo customers by abolishing a range of export ancillary charges. Around a quarter of those charges will be dropped from 1 April 2004.
Similarly, Lufthansa Cargo's td.Flash services will be adjusted at the end of April.
The enhancements include a higher weight limit for automatically guaranteed capacity. Moreover, shorter handling times will further accelerate the transport of import and export td.Flash shipments. Despite these lasting product improvements, the price for td.Flash remains unchanged.
