Kitty Hawk Brings Additional Value-Added
Service Options To The Freight Forwarding Community
DFW AIRPORT, Texas (March 9, 2004) - Kitty Hawk Cargo,
a division of Kitty Hawk, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board:
KTHK), today announced a new airport to door delivery
service that expands the cargo carrier's capabilities
and offers shippers an attractive service option to
speed overnight delivery of mission-critical shipments.
Specifically added at the request of many of its freight
forwarding and logistics customers, the new service
extends Kitty Hawk's traditional, superior overnight
express product from airport to final destination. A
neutral cartage network will provide quality door delivery
service within each airport's local delivery area and
beyond.
Kitty Hawk's airport to door service provides numerous
other benefits that give freight forwarders, logistics
companies and shippers more control than ever. Preferred
recovery will ensure that shipments are offloaded, broken
down and sorted for the fastest delivery possible. Shippers
will have the choice of time-specific or morning delivery
options and Kitty Hawk will provide full tracking and
tracing of the shipment right to the door. The service
also provides both residential and commercial delivery.

its drive toward quality, excellence and innovation,"
said Toby Skaar, vice president and chief operating

that brings a new level of confidence to a shipping
