DANZAS STARTS AIR CHARTER SERVICE PROGRAM IN HONG KONG
Danzas Group, a logistics services provider, has launched a new air charter service program comprising 70 twice-weekly flights from Hong Kong to Los Angeles, Chicago and New York, in partnership with Atlas Air and Lufthansa.
Atlas Air departs Hong Kong on Thursday and Monday to Chicago and New York, while Lufthansa flies from Hong Kong to Los Angeles every Wednesday and Sunday.
The continued demand for imports from Asia to North America has put a premium on the availability of scheduled air-freight flights out of Hong Kong.
The charter program insures that customers have access to air-freight space during the peak shipping season, Danzas said.
“Hong Kong has traditionally been a high-season market for us. We’ve experienced an upsurge in shipments of up to 170 percent. Customers, particularly in the high-tech and fast-moving-consumer goods industries, have been responding positively,” said Kelvin Leung, head of Danzas’ Intercontinental Business Unit for Hong Kong and South China.
