The Boeing 767 is recognized as one of the most modern mid-range wide body freighter currently available in the market. DHL became the first company to register this aircraft type in Europe.

Utilizing, wherever possible, the most modern technology available also underlines Deutsche Post DHL's environmental commitment, with our proclaimed target of reducing our carbon footprint by 30 percent by 2020. Due to the advanced engine technology and winglets, the B767 and B77 are one of the most efficient and environment-friendly aircraft in its class.
