“…Furthermore, the globalization of economic activity and the concomitant disaggregation of production networks have raised the importance of air cargo services not only to individual companies, but also to regions and nations [81]. Increased requirements on the supply chain, such as the reduction in times to ship products to markets, shortening of product life cycles, and the trend to source globally, have accentuated the requirement for fast and reliable transportation services [82]. Indeed, shippers have increasingly regarded the speed of the air cargo mode as compared to surface transport modes, as being ideally suited to their requirements for faster, more reliable delivery given the growing supply chain complexity [83].…”

This paper presents a case study of the DHL Express and Lufthansa Cargo strategic joint venture cargo airline 'AeroLogic', the global air cargo industry's largest operative joint venture between an airline and a leading international express and logistics provider. The study used a qualitative research approach. The data gathered for the study was examined by document analysis. The strategic analysis of the AeroLogic joint venture was based on the use of Porter's Five Forces framework. The study found that the AeroLogic joint venture airline has provided synergistic benefits to both partners and has allowed the partners to access new markets and to participate in the evolution of the air cargo industry. The new venture has also enabled both joint venture partners to enhance their competitive position in the global air cargo industry through strengthened service offerings and has provided the partners with increased cargo capacities, a larger route network, and greater frequencies within their own route networks. The study also found that the AeroLogic business model is unique in the air cargo industry.

“…A., 2013). A pesar de su interés estratégico, las investigaciones realizadas sobre este último modo a nivel internacional se centran mayoritariamente en el análisis de la estructura y flujos de las redes de transporte aéreo de mercancías (Hui, G. W. L., et al, 2004;Matsumoto, H., 2004;Fung, M. K. Y., et al, 2005;Derudder, B. et al, 2008;Dang, Y. R., y Peng, L.

El proceso de globalización requiere que los actores locales y regionales se incorporen en las redes y flujos económicos internacionales para lograr la competitividad y el desarrollo económico. Ello supone cambios que modifican los impactos y alcance de las infraestructuras de transporte. En el caso de la distribución de mercancías, el transporte aéreo supone un volumen reducido sobre el total de la carga internacional, donde solo unos cuantos aeropuertos centralizan la mayor parte del mismo. En España únicamente cuatro son relevantes en la gestión de carga aérea, en especial de la internacional. Esta investigación caracteriza los principales patrones de la carga aérea en los aeropuertos españoles mediante el análisis de su evolución reciente en torno a diferentes variables, evaluando algunos cambios notables que están modificando la jerarquía aérea.

“…The transportation of goods/freight by the air cargo mode for commercial purposes plays a significant role in the global economy and in many firms' supply chain management and logistics strategies. Air cargo is defined as 'anything carried in an aircraft except for mail or luggage carried under a passenger ticket and baggage check but including baggage shipped under an airway bill or shipment record' (Hui et al, 2004). In 2016, the world's airlines transported 52 million tons of cargo, representing over 35 per cent of world trade by value (International Air Transport Association, 2018).…”

The introduction of the Airbus A350-900 (A359) and the Boeing B787-9 (B789) have enabled airlines to operate ultra-long-range services. Using a mixed methods research design, this study has examined the air cargo-carrying potential of Singapore Airlines Airbus A350-900XWB (A359) and United Airlines Boeing B787-9 (789) aircraft on their ultra-long-haul San Francisco to Singapore and the Singapore to San Francisco air routes. The qualitative data was analysed using document analysis, and the air cargo payload was modelled by simulation. The air cargo-carrying potential of the two aircraft types was significantly influenced by enroute weather. In the event of eastbound winds, the Singapore Airlines Airbus A350-900XWB air cargo payload was 16.9 tonnes and the United Airlines Boeing 787-9 was 11.5 tonnes, when these flights had a full passenger payload. In the case of westbound winds with a full passenger payload, the Singapore Airlines Airbus A350-900XWB air cargo payload was 13.1 tonnes and the United Airlines Boeing 787-9 was 7.9 tonnes. When there were no winds on the air routes, the Singapore Airlines Airbus A350-900XWB offered 15.0 tonnes and the United Airline Boeing 787-9 offered 9.7 tonnes of air cargo payload, respectively.
