Cargo Facts is pleased to announce that Dorothea von Boxberg, chief commercial officer and executive board member for product and sales at Lufthansa Cargo, will join Cargo Facts Symposium 2020, a virtual event on Oct. 27-28, to speak in a session titled “Refiling air cargo’s flight plan: Growth opportunities and obstacles in global airfreight.”

This live panel will take place from 11:45 a.m.-12:45 p.m. EST on Tuesday, Oct. 27. Von Boxberg joins a lineup of esteemed panelists including: Tatyana Arslanova, executive operating officer of Volga-Dnepr Group; Andres Bianchi, CEO of LATAM Cargo; Houston Mills, vice president of flight operations of UPS Airlines; and Jessica Tyler, president of cargo and vice president of airport excellence at American Airlines.

Von Boxberg joined Lufthansa in 2007 and in 2015 transferred to Lufthansa Cargo to the role of global sales management. She was appointed to the executive board in August 2018.

Von Boxberg is currently responsible for managing global sales, capacity, product and innovation, and handling at airports other than the Frankfurt and Munich hubs.

In the third quarter of this year, Lufthansa Cargo took delivery of its eighth and ninth own-operated 777Fs, and expects to complete the transition away from the MD-11Fs to an all-777F fleet in 2021.

Cargo Facts Symposium is the leading airfreight conference, and it remains vitally crucial to the industry during the COVID-19 crisis. This year’s virtual event runs on a digital platform that allows for panels, live discussion and Q&A sessions, as well as one-on-one networking.
