The  Norwegian  city  of  Stavanger  is  a  new  destination  on  Lufthansa  Cargo’s  freighter  schedule.  As   of  8  November,  one  of  the  cargo  airline’s  Boeing  777F  will  link  Houston  with  Stavanger  every   Saturday,  providing  a  direct  freighter  service  between  two  of  the  most  important  centres  of  the   global  oil  and  gas  industry.
“Both  in  Houston  and  Stavanger  time-critical  technology  for  offshore  and  deep  sea  oilfield  drilling   is  produced”,  explains  Alexander  Kohnen,  Director  Sales  &  Handling  Nordic  and  Baltic  at   Lufthansa  Cargo.  “In  most  cases,  speed  is  of  the  essence.  With  our  direct  cargo  connection,  time- critical  express  consignments  will  reach  almost  every  destination  in  the  world  within  24  hours.”
In  total,  Lufthansa  Cargo  will  serve  more  than  300  destinations  across  100  countries  with  the   coming  winter  schedule.  45  stations  will  be  flown  to  by  the  freight  fleet.
