The role of air transport

– Air transport and the economy:
Aviation connects the global transportation network, essential for global business and tourism. It plays a crucial role in promoting economic growth, especially in developing countries.

– Air transport in facilitating import–export activities and international cooperation:
Air cargo enables countries to rapidly export their key commodities, accelerating bilateral cooperation and fostering mutually beneficial economic development.

– Air transport as a solution for complex cargo requirements:
Air freight is considered the fastest and safest mode due to its unique characteristics. It is commonly used for high-value, urgent, or critical shipments requiring expedited delivery. Air transport also offers one of the highest levels of safety among all modes of transportation.

Advantages of air cargo transportation

• Unaffected by complex terrain like road or sea transport, enabling access to nearly all countries.
  

• Fast, punctual service thanks to high flight speeds.
  

• Minimizes losses arising from handling, breakage, or theft.
  

• Lower insurance costs due to reduced risk levels.

Disadvantages of air cargo transportation

• High freight rates calculated per kilogram.
  

• Limited commodity categories less suitable for low-value goods.
  

• Susceptible to weather conditions such as fog or storms, causing flight delays.
  

• Smaller cargo capacity compared to other modes unsuitable for bulky or heavy goods due to aircraft compartment limitations and weight restrictions—sea freight is typically the viable alternative for such shipments.
  

• Subject to strict regulatory and legal standards to ensure aviation security and safety high-risk cargo (flammable, explosive, etc.) may be prohibited.
