The airline has to decide whether it will apply for special permission. Should the plane remain in Frankfurt, the cargo is generally not unloaded, wherever possible. The crew travels to a hotel and, depending on the new flight schedule and the staff’s resting hours, the flight will continue the following day. This is not the case for special cargo. In particular, this includes live animals and goods that cannot stay in the aircraft overnight, such as foodstuffs. Should such cargo be on board, it will be unloaded again at the instruction of the airline represen- tative and brought to the intended location. Animals spend the night in the Animal Lounge at Frankfurt Airport, and perishable goods are stored in the Perishable Center. At both locations, we ensure the spatial and climatic conditions that are required for expensive racehorses or delicate fruit. This ensures that the special cargo can be reloaded onto the plane on the following day and can reach its destination without incident. 372014 Compact Responsible Corporate Management
