Thx Erik! A big difference...Capital=A330=all to LGG now
Central=77F= CDG at this moment..

Correct. The A330F of KF was already in Hong Kong to pick up the cargo

Remarkable to see Volotea A320 EC-NOM operating BCN-BRU on multiple occasions on behalf of DHL.

Does it mean that DHL is wet-leasing passenger aircraft to carry freight? Remarkable indeed. It would show the lack of suitable aircraft on the market.

DHL has already cargo flights to BCN but with bigger planes as they don't have narrow body planes.

This is extra capacity but also a reaction on the noise restrictions they are faced now.

Not sure yet how long this will take.

It would be a good move from DHL to purchase cargo narrow body like LH did. Good for day and night flights

DHL owns a small fleet of converted 738s operated by Kalitta in North America under a CMI contract. They will also own some of the A321s being converted for SmartLynx (if they don't own one already). Their narrowbody fleet is small (and growing), but not non-existent.

Those planes are not owned by DHL. They are operating for DHL, which is a very different thing.

They very much are owned by DHL Aviation. They were first acquired by DHL Holdings, converted, transferred to DHL Aviation, and then leased to Kalitta.
