Jettainer has appointed Moritz Köhler as its new Chief Operating Officer, with his tenure commencing in July 2026. In this role, Köhler will be responsible for the company's reorganized Operations division. His purview will encompass global operational activities, the management of Unit Load Device (ULD) fleets, and the oversight of Jettainer's extensive international network of control desks and repair service providers.
Köhler joins Jettainer with approximately 18 years of experience from Lufthansa Cargo, where he held various leadership positions. His background includes significant roles in commercial management and market development, providing him with a comprehensive understanding of the air cargo industry's operational and strategic facets.
For freight forwarders and operations managers, this appointment signals a potential strategic shift in how Jettainer manages its ULD assets and global support network. Enhanced leadership in operations could lead to improved ULD availability, better maintenance, and more efficient handling processes, which are critical for air cargo schedule reliability and cost management. Any improvements in ULD management directly benefit forwarders by ensuring cargo readiness and reducing potential delays or equipment-related issues.
