En este asunto

The Covid-19 pandemic is still having an impact on the air cargo business, but there is still potential for growth. The cover story in this issue focuses on how African Air cargo is seeing bigger dreams even though it is yet to come out of the shackles of the Covid-19 pandemic. However, before that, the industry needs to build trust, offer reasonable ROI and bring the continent together to provide a unified regulatory landscape.

In the special report, we look at The European Union as it is all set to implement the Import Control System 2 for air cargo and airmail with effect from March 2023 to enhance security. Are the systems geared for it?

2022 was a golden year for unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), with several announcements, nods of approval, certifications, new deployments, incredible statistics, and cooperation from key government stakeholders. We did a review of how the drone business would be in 2023.

Taking the Chinese New Year as an indicator for the year coming up, we delve into how the odds are stacking up for the air freight industry amidst inflation, macroeconomic factors, China’s slow trade revival, and reinfection fears.

In this issue, we feature two interviews - Adefunke Adeyemi, the new secretary general of the African Civil Aviation Commission (AFCAC) and Torsten Wefers, Vice President of marketing and sales, Liege Airport.
