"On cargo.one, with utmost efficiency, forwarders will find live offers, compare and book general cargo, passive pharma and perishables. Each is offered in td.pro (standard speed) and td.Flash (high priority) speed," says a release from Lufthansa Cargo.

In addition to the Lufthansa Cargo website, which continues to be available to customers in full as a central information and booking platform for the entire product range and maximum of digital processes, cargo.one is proving to be an attractive addition with optimised search and booking functions for general cargo up to ten tonnes. "Customers can find suitable options with just a few clicks in the menu navigation and benefit from a structured overview in the presentation of available services according to airline, route and prices."

Lufthansa Cargo and cargo.one will collaborate and bring new innovations, features and processes for more forwarder efficiency first at cargo.one. "Such close collaboration was already piloted last year with the introduction of the AWB auto assignment. There the complete redesign of the AWB stock process made stocks obsolete, resulting in increased productivity and complexity reductions for customers.
