The rise of ecommerce and the increasing demand for fast and reliable delivery of goods have spurred the growth of the air cargo industry. This trend is expected to continue in the future.
To fuel this growth, freighter, and logistic operators have appealed mostly to the conversion of old passenger jetliners into parcel haulers.
Conversely, the growing interest in sustainable aviation and reducing the carbon footprint of air cargo operations are leading to the development of new technologies, such as electric and hybridelectric aircraft, and the use of alternative fuels.
In this episode, we explore what’s next in the future of air cargo amid the opportunities and challenges that the industry faces. Adaptation and innovation seem to be key to achieving sustainability goals while meeting the changing demand.
