time:matters to fly express shipments on Air Berlin

time:matters has signed an agreement with Leisure Cargo, the Air Berlin group freight division, to transport express shipments on the flights of Air Berlin, LTU and other group carriers to broaden its network of destinations.

Leisure Cargo, specialising in cargo sales and marketing for leisure travel airlines, markets the freight capacity of Air Berlin, its subsidiary LTU and a range of other charter airlines. Through the new partnership time:matters expects to profit by offering express shipping to and from numerous German and European airports more frequently, and by gaining more flexibility when it comes to choosing the quickest flight connection.

Initially, ten Air Berlin airports will be integrated into the time:matters network for inbound and outbound shipments, and others, such as Majorca, will be added at a later date.

“The excellent European network of Air Berlin that we can rely on due to our cooperation with Leisure Cargo, enables us to further expand our customer service”, said Jörg Asbrand, manager Operations and Customer Service at time:matters. Leisure Cargo operations director Christian Weidener said the cooperation with time:matters extended its product portfolio.
