DHL Aviation
DHL Aviation is a subsidiary of DHL Express (part of the Deutsche Post DHL group) responsible for providing transportation by air. It is not a single airline, but refers to several affiliated, associated or charter airlines. In 2009, Deutsche Post World Net changed its name to Deutsche Post DHL (DPDHL).
On 7 April 2022, DHL Aero Expreso Flight 7216, a Boeing 757-27A (PCF), crashed in San Jose, Costa Rica after attempting an emergency landing. Both crew members survived the crash without injuries.[1]
