DHL boosts Hanoi exports with extra freighters
DHL Express has added more than 300 t of weekly air cargo capacity from Hanoi, where the Fiata World Congress is starting today, 6 October 2025, to meet rising demand for high-tech exports. The new capacity is served by Boeing 777 and Airbus A330 freighters operating six days a week via Hong Kong, connecting Vietnam with North America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia. DHL recorded double-digit growth in tech-related shipments from the Vietnames capital in the first half of 2025, reflecting the city’s role as a hub for laptops, electronics and other high-value products.
"By enhancing our air network in Hanoi, we are reinforcing Vietnam’s role in global trade and ensuring that our customers can capitalize on the country’s growth momentum," said Peter Bardens, DHL Express SVP for network operations & aviation in Asia Pacific. (ah)
