time:matters has extended its Sameday Air network across Asia, bringing the service to Tokyo Narita, Singapore and Bangkok.

The stations in Japan, Singapore and Thailand are connected to the European hubs of Frankfurt, Munich and Vienna with 84 flights a week.

The new locations join services to the Chinese cities of Shanghai, Shenyang, Beijing, Nanjing, Qingdao, Chengdu and Guangzhou.

time:matters expanded its Chinese presence in June by establishing time:matters International Freight Forwarding to provide customers with support in Mandarin through a local hotline, email address and additional website.

Lars Krosch, COO of time:matters says: “We are now connecting further important Asian marketplaces with large European and American business centres via our unparalleled Sameday Air network. This represents an important step towards our long-term goal of providing our customers with a highly efficient global Sameday Air network.”

Alexander Kohnen, CEO of time:matters says: “The expansion into the Asian market is a key element of our internationalisation strategy and will help us to considerably extend our global quality promise and product range. This is a logical step for us following our expansion into China and a response to the specific needs and requirements of our international customer base.”
