Abstract:

The air cargo panel was a new addition to the workshop, and the group's objectives, therefore, differed from the other workshop panels. Specifically, the discussions held by the panel were geared toward laying a foundation and developing a framework for further discussion of air cargo. The two key questions addressed were: What are the key trends and issues in the air cargo industry today? and Should the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) resume air cargo forecasting? The second question was specifically posed to the panel by FAA to help provide insights into the need for additional or modified data. The panel included representatives from airport operators and developers, carriers, manufacturers, and consultants to the industry. A wide range of trends and issues were discussed during the panel sessions, and the FAA question was fully addressed. However, the panel recognized that these discussions and this summary should be considered only a starting point for more in-depth deliberations.
