DHL Express has officially concluded the fleet modernization of its affiliate Air Hong Kong, retiring the last A300-600F in favor of an all-A330F freighter fleet. The final A300-600F, bearing serial number 856, has exited the fleet, marking the end of an era and the completion of a multi-phase transition to newer, more capable aircraft.
DHL Aviation (Germany) has expanded its global freighter fleet with the delivery of an A330-200F aircraft, serial 1708. This aircraft is operated by Air Hong Kong and powered by Trent 772B-60 engines, produced by Rolls-Royce. The A330-200F is renowned for its exceptional cargo capacity and range, making it a valuable asset for international logistics and express services.
Air Hong Kong has announced plans to retire its last three Airbus A300-600F freighters in 2025, marking the next phase in its fleet modernization strategy. Originally set for an earlier transition to an all-A330F fleet, the airline has now adjusted its timeline, with the process expected to be completed a year later than planned.
