Mitteldeutsche Flughafen AG and DHL, a subsidiary of Deutsche Post, have prematurely extended their contract for the freight center at Leipzig/Halle Airport until 2053.

The agreement secures long-term investments and higher fees from DHL for the location. Saxony's Prime Minister Michael Kretschmer welcomed the extension as an important decision for the economic development of the region. Despite the higher costs, DHL board member Tobias Meyer sees the agreement as economically viable. The contract details, including the increase in the night flight component, remain largely confidential. Critics complain about the lack of transparency and fear continued financial burdens for the state budget.
