Lufthansa Cargo: full eAWB implementation on all feasible lanes from S'22 schedule

Published: 17-02-2022 Lufthansa Cargo: full eAWB implementation on all feasible lanes from S'22 schedule

Feb 17, 2022 (newstodate): Lufthansa Cargo has now set summer 2022 as the cut-over point for full implementation of the IATA eAWB.
   In 2020, IATA announced an industry goal to achieve 100 percent eAWB by the end of 2022, meaning that all shipments will be carried only with electronic air waybills.
   To meet this goal, Lufthansa Cargo is now taking a major step towards completely paperless shipments: starting with the summer schedule on March 27, 2022, all shipments on feasible lanes will be carried with electronic air waybill - eAWB only.
   In addition, the airline is introducing a "paper-to-eAWB" service, through which the few remaining paper-based AWBs will be digitized at shipment acceptance and then continue to accompany the shipment as an eAWB.
