Emirates Courier Express begins operations in Germany

Emirates Courier Express has launched its operations in Germany via Frankfurt, expanding its European footprint. The service began on November 4, 2025, connecting Dubai and Frankfurt through 21 weekly flights to support both business-to-business and business-to-consumer shippers. It will serve all of Germany through the Frankfurt gateway, offering door-to-door cross-border delivery solutions that link German manufacturers with partners across the Middle East, Africa, and Australia.

The new service is part of Emirates Courier Express's plan to strengthen its presence in key global production centres. Operating within a four-hour radius of Frankfurt, the company aims to support industries including life sciences, healthcare, textiles, automotive, aviation, and industrial engineering. Delivery timelines across Germany are expected to range between three and five days.

Dennis Lister, Senior Vice President of Product and Innovation at Emirates SkyCargo, said, “With our high-frequency flight schedule and the flexibility of our world-class infrastructure, Emirates Courier Express brings a new dynamic to Germany’s logistics ecosystem. Working hand in hand with customers, we can provide tailormade solutions to a variety of industries, carrying everything from pharmaceuticals to automotive spare parts, and provide quicker, more direct shipments from Germany into key markets such as the Middle East, Africa and Australia.”

The direct link between Dubai and Frankfurt aims to reduce transit times and handling. While most shipments will be carried on Emirates passenger flights, the airline’s six weekly freighter services in Frankfurt will accommodate larger cargo, ensuring flexibility for different shipment types.

Emirates Courier Express operates entirely on a digital platform. Its technology integrates with customer systems to provide real-time tracking and updates throughout the collection and delivery process.
