“…For example, KENYON [3] has studied a number of factors affecting port competition, such as the demand for goods in the hinterland of the port, technological progress and traffic accessibility, and optimized the intelligent status and cargo structure of major US ports. There are also related studies on the importance of air cargo, such as Franziska [4] which believes that air cargo plays a key role in the air transport chain and the global economy and that as for other modes of transportation, the demand for air cargo is a derivative one.…”

Based on the principle of maximum entropy, this paper conducts the goal planning modeling of the whole evaluation system, studies the selection of the airport's dominant goods, and verifies the applicability of the model by the case of Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport. On the basis of the current development of domestic and international air cargo, the importance of the structure of the airport's dominant cargo is explained. Then the model of airport dominant cargo selection is constructed on the basis of the principle of maximum entropy. According to the selection model, the empirical analysis of the main cargo types of Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport is conducted. Finally, according to the final evaluation value of each indicator, the dominant goods of the airport are selected to achieve reasonable allocation of limited resources so as to make corresponding proposals, to improve the overall economic efficiency of the airport, and to optimize airport development.

“…79 The DHL Airbus crossing the Delta Airlines flight illustrates that the transport of goods by air link and its associated logistics are of great economic importance 80 -and likely to grow in both volume and significance. 81 However, the meeting of the two aircraft above the Netherlands also underlines how skewed aeromobility is in favour of those allowed and able to use the global transport system. 82 While large parts of the world's population in effect are excluded from the prerogatives of global mobility, it is easier in many ways to ship goods between countries than people.…”

Living in a fly-over world: on moving in a heterogeneous navigational culture

This article explores a question of aeromobility and cultural geography by asking what it means to live in a fly-over world. How are we part of practices of aeromobility at times when we are not travelling ourselves? In reflecting on different aspects of global air travel, the article offers a critical understanding of how aeromobility increases the heterogeneity of our navigational culture. A culture not understood as a single global space encompassing us all but rather as networked combinations of travel and non-travel, of horizontal speed and vertical distance, and of complex patterns of diverse modes of movement. Air travel changes the relative distance between geographies. Based on this observation, the article argues that aeromobility affects the feeling of belonging that we develop to the people and places around us – even when we are not able or willing or allowed to travel across the globe.

“…No caso do transporte de carga, as empresas fazem uso do compartimento inferior do avião para esse segmento (belly cargo). Dessa forma, o tipo de carga transportada é caracterizado, geralmente, por pacotes ou mercadorias de tamanho médio a pequeno (Kupfer, Meersman, Onghena, & Van de Voorde, 2017). A venda do serviço é feita por meio de agências da própria companhia aérea ou por meio de empresas especializadas, tais como agentes de carga ou mesmo integradores de grande porte -e.g., DHL, UPS, Fedex, entre outros (Chang & Chang, 2009).…”

“…Uma particularidade geral do transporte de carga é a falta de demanda nos dois sentidos da rota, ou seja, em um voo de ida e volta, apenas um dos trechos (ida ou volta) apresenta grande demanda pelo transporte de carga (Popescu, Keskinocak, & Mutawaly, 2010). Assim, o compartilhamento do uso da aeronave permite a redução de custos (Kupfer et al, 2017).…”

Resumo Este artigo analisa o efeito da estratégia de diversificação relacionada no desempenho das firmas. Com base em uma amostra de cerca de 70% das companhias aéreas dos Estados Unidos, o trabalho investiga a relação entre o grau de diversificação e a lucratividade das firmas. Foram utilizados modelos de regressão linear múltipla com dados longitudinais (i.e., 6 anos), cuja estimação dos parâmetros foi feita pelo método dos momentos generalizado (GMM). A pesquisa identifica que o padrão de relação entre a extensão da diversificação e o desempenho é curvilíneo na forma de U-invertido. Portanto, a expansão do escopo dos negócios das firmas com a estratégia de diversificação relacionada aumenta os esforços de coordenação que, a partir de certo momento, penalizam os benefícios dessa estratégia.
