LUFTHANSA Cargo company, time:matters GmbH, a German provider of express logistics services, is continuing to expand its "same day" air network by adding Scotland's Aberdeen airport as a new station for transporting urgent and complex shipments.

The development brings the number of same-day air network stations to 104, a company statement said.

"With Aberdeen, we are incorporating the focus area for the oil industry in the North Sea region into our network. The new station is therefore interesting for customers from the oil and gas, ship spares and maritime industries.

"Their time-critical shipments benefit from several daily direct flights to the international hub Frankfurt (FRA) and subsequently from the fastest possible access to our entire same day air network. This translates into shorter transport times and increased flexibility for our customers and their highly urgent shipments," said CEO Franz-Joseph Miller.
