LH Cargo & AeroLogic 777Fs

[Iver]

Now that the initial destinations have been selected for the shiney, new LH Cargo 777Fs:

Lufthansa's New B777-200Fs to fly to US cities | Airline and Aviation Forums | Airnation.net Social Hangar

There is some clear overlap with current AeroLogic routes. How is the addition of the 777Fs to LH Cargo's fleet going to impact Aerologic's operation? Will the AeroLogic birds be redeployed to new expansion routes or just increase frequencies to existing routes? I assume MD11s will be sold off as LH Cargo adds 777Fs. How will Aerologic's fleet be impacted or redirected?

I guess status quo then....

[Intruder]

Aerologic currently has several 777s flying for DHL, so LH freight should not affect them at all.

Yes they do. They fly for LH Cargo on the weekends from FRA. So I guess it might effect them. So maybe less flights for LG Cargo, just DHL.
Anyway who cares, it doesn't change anything.

[Best foot forward]

There was a rumour that DHL and LH will/have parted company and the 777s will come into the DHL fold at some time in the future. Good bit of speculation.

[EAM]

As you said. Rumours. I think the contract with Aerologic end in 2017 or 2018.
Don't think anything will change before that.
