The first partner in the overnight airmail network was Lufthansa, which serviced all routes at the time with the exception of the air corridor to Berlin controlled by the Western Allies (serviced by the American carrier PanAm until 1990). Over the years, additional airlines were added to service the network, with Lufthansa terminating its service in 2008. The Frankfurt (am Main) airport served as the network hub for decades, but lost this role in 2005 due to the ban on night flights at Frankfurt.

As late as 1996, Deutsche Post was still transporting some 430 metric tons of letter mail with 26 partner airline aircraft to 45 destinations every night. In the end, it was only 53 metric tons, with six aircraft servicing the routes Stuttgart-Berlin, Hanover-Munich and Hanover-Stuttgart (each in both directions). This amounted to some 1.5 million letters flown each night or roughly 270,000 items per aircraft on average.

Political and social consensus in Germany today has largely determined that ensuring speedy delivery of most domestic letter mail by the following workday is no longer a core component of universal postal service. Instead, focus is much more on the social-environmental aspects and impacts of the postal service. Accordingly, the reforms to Germany's Postal Act (PostModG) - currently in deliberation in Germany's parliament and expected to take effect soon - stipulate longer transit times for letter mail, which has long been the norm in most EU countries. Nevertheless, Deutsche Post will continue to ensure fast letter mail transport between northern and southern Germany with the deployment of Sprinter vans, among other modes. This is also made possible by reduced letter mail volumes and sorting times.
