Open Skies Policy Boosts Air Cargo Market
The introduction of ‘open skies’ policy is positively impacting the global air cargo market. The policy primarily aims to liberalize rules and regulations in the worldwide aviation industry and calls for minimum government intervention. With the adoption of ‘open skies’ policy, trade and import-export of commodities can be faster with fewer technical hindrances. Air transport is the preferred mode for shipping perishables, chemicals, pharma products, and valuables, as it takes less time over other modes of transport and ensures timely delivery of time-sensitive, temperature-controlled goods most of the times.
The e-commerce sector is expanding at an exponential pace across the world. This would open immense growth opportunities for the air express industry in the years to come. E-tailers are engaging in partnership with air carriers to serve international shipping needs as online shopping surges the demand for shipping orders across the world.
The rising demand from just-in-time (JIT) manufacturers is another key factor acting in favor of the air cargo market. Just-in-time manufacturing involves manufacture of goods just before they are loaded in trucks. JIT enhances operational efficiency and reduces inventory. In addition, JIT manufacturing practices help optimize utilization of resources and leads to improved inventory turnover. JIT manufacturing practices are increasingly being adopted to minimize spoilage and provide goods-on-demand.
Political Volatility to Act as Key Challenge
Political instability in several countries worldwide is likely to emerge as a challenge to the growth of air cargo market. This creates an impediment for open sky policies, as governments become wary to allow free trade and other activities. Furthermore, the soaring cost of aviation fuel which directly impacts cost of air freight is a key challenge to the overall market. Nevertheless, the flourishing e-commerce sector has brought a dramatic change in shopping trends. Rising consumerism in emerging economies is leading to substantial spending on consumer goods. This is likely to offer fair chance for the air cargo market to prosper.
