As the year closes, we look back at a period in which air cargo accelerated. Technologies once considered emerging have now moved firmly into the mainstream. AI, automation, sustainable fuels, robotics, and digital corridors all advanced in parallel, creating a smarter, greener and more resilient global cargo ecosystem.
Our Cover Story explores how these shifts converged to redefine efficiency, safety and network visibility. We also examine India’s evolving cargo landscape, where diversified exports and sustained domestic demand continue to reshape market behaviour.
This issue tracks the A350F’s progress, highlighting its order book and the milestones that will influence freighter fleets for years to come. We chart Central Asia’s rising importance, fuelled by new trade lanes and e-commerce flows.
We then unpack the growing impact of PLACI and its ability to push security intelligence further upstream. We go behind the scenes of the logistics that powered Abu Dhabi’s F1 finale.
