DHL’s investment in the 777 Freighters is a direct answer to the growing demand for global express capacity. Being the largest twin-engine cargo airplanes in the world, Boeing’s 777.
DHL 777 Order As far as I know, DHL is a network of airlines, some they own, some they contract with. So my question is what certificate are these 777s going to end up on. DHL Express ordered 14 Boeing 777 Freighters with options and purchase rights for another seven aircraft. The first four of the planes will be delivered by year-end 2019. The 777 Freighter is the world’s largest and longest range twin-engine freighter with a range of 4,970 nautical miles (9,200 kilometres) and can carry a maximum payload of 102,010 kilograms. It allows DHL Express to make fewer stops and reduce associated landing fees on long-haul routes, resulting in the lowest trip cost of any large freighter. DHL's capital expenditure for the 777Fs is $4.7 billion at list price, according to Boeing, but airlines typically receive discounts for multi-plane purchases. The order doubles DHL's 777 fleet.
