More than 30,000 users across 172 countries now book air cargo capacity through cargo.one, a figure that reflects how far digital distribution has come in an industry once built on phone calls, email exchanges and static PDF rate sheets. Real-time booking, API connectivity and digital marketplaces have become integral to modern air cargo operations, enabling airlines and freight forwarders to connect more efficiently than ever before. Since launching one of the industry's first digital air … [Read more...] about From multimodal quoting to AI workers: cargo.one prepares air cargo for the AI age

PACTL strengthens cold chain and specialised cargo capabilities at Shanghai Pudong
As global supply chains grow more complex, the role of cargo terminals is evolving beyond handling into enabling precision, compliance, and connectivity. At Shanghai Pudong International Airport, one of the world’s busiest air cargo gateways, PACTL is strengthening its capabilities in pharmaceutical and temperature-sensitive logistics, supported by ongoing investments in cold chain infrastructure and internationally recognised standards in security and sustainability. In this Q&A, … [Read more...] about PACTL strengthens cold chain and specialised cargo capabilities at Shanghai Pudong
MASkargo’s cold chain edge across the Asia Pacific
In air cargo, risk rarely comes from the skies—it happens on the ground, at handover points. For MASkargo, safeguarding cold chain and high-value cargo integrity across Asia Pacific begins there, through disciplined protocols, controlled environments, and coordinated processes that minimise temperature excursions and disruptions. Across a region defined by varied infrastructure, regulatory frameworks, and operating conditions, maintaining that level of control requires more than … [Read more...] about MASkargo’s cold chain edge across the Asia Pacific
Raising the bar for cold chain and high-value cargo handling
Recognition at the Payload Asia Awards is often a reflection of consistency rather than a single standout achievement. For SATS, securing both Ground Handler of the Year – Asia Pacific and Global Ground Handler of the Year at the 12th edition of the awards underscores a broader shift in how the company is redefining cargo handling across increasingly complex and time-critical supply chains. As cold chain, pharmaceutical, and high-value shipments take on greater prominence in Asia’s trade … [Read more...] about Raising the bar for cold chain and high-value cargo handling
Evolving the cargo network: How legacy experience shapes a resilient, future-ready strategy
For a global carrier, a cargo network is never static. It is a living, adaptive system shaped by shifting trade flows, evolving customer expectations, and continuous fleet transformation. From the perspective of United Cargo, decades of operating within a legacy airline framework have fundamentally influenced how modern cargo networks are designed: scalable, flexible, and resilient by intent rather than by circumstance. From passenger network strength to cargo agility For a legacy carrier … [Read more...] about Evolving the cargo network: How legacy experience shapes a resilient, future-ready strategy
From handling to intelligence: Why cargo terminals now shape airline network performance
Cargo terminals are no longer simply the physical endpoint of an airfreight journey. As airlines streamline networks and concentrate operations around fewer, high-intensity hubs, terminals increasingly influence reliability, connectivity, and overall network performance. “Air Cargo terminals are playing an important and ever-increasing global role in consolidating and distributing airfreight via their network independent hubs,” says Björn Ussat, Director Air Cargo at Lödige Industries. … [Read more...] about From handling to intelligence: Why cargo terminals now shape airline network performance
