FedEx was once again the busiest freight airline in the world, while Qatar Airways, AirBridgeCargo (ABC)

and All Nippon Airways were among the fastest growers in 2016.

The annual World Air Transport Statistics report from Iata showed that in freight tonne km (FTK) terms, FedEx was the busiest

airline in the world last year with scheduled traffic totaling 15.7bn FTK on the back of a slight 0.6% year-on-year decline in demand.

The decline in freight traffic comes despite a 0.8% increase in tonnes flown, suggesting the express operator saw package and

freight shipments increase in weight but flew the volumes over shorter distances.

Second placed Emirates saw cargo traffic increase by 0.9% year

on year in 2016 to reach 12.3bn FTK, while tonnages increased

by 3.4%. In its annual report, the carrier reported “challenging”

market conditions with fast-changing demand patterns.

Emirates SkyCargo also inaugurated the SkyPharma 4,000 sq

m purpose-built facility at Dubai International Airport; and

launched the White Cover Advanced, a protection system for

temperature-sensitive cargo.

Freight yield per FTK decreased by 8%, reflecting strong

downward trend across the industry and the weakening of

the major currencies against the strong US dollar.

Overall, the top 25 cargo airlines saw cargo traffic increased by

4.1% year on year to 155bn FTK, compared with overall industry

growth of 3.6%, nearly double the five-year average of 2%, to

224bn FTK. There was a modest start to the year before

demand took off in the latter half of 2016 with a particularly

strong peak season.

Iata said the second-half improvement coincided with a steady

increase in manufacturers’ export order books, with pharma

and cross-border e-commerce two of the best performing

sectors.

The above market growth generated by the top-25 carriers is

fueled by airlines expanding their fleets, such as Qatar,

AirBridgeCargo (ABC), All Nippon, United and China Southern. In

Europe, Lufthansa and Cargolux also registered above market

improvements. The airline that saw total cargo traffic increase

by the largest amount in 2016 was Qatar Airways as it climbed

up one spot to fifth place overall with traffic of 9.2bn FTK and

year-on-year growth of 20.4%.

In percentage terms, ABC was the fastest grower in 2016 as it registered an improvement of 20.8% year on year to 4.9bn FTK. The

increase comes as the airline takes delivery of new aircraft and therefore continues to add new routes and services.

Some of the new destinations added to the carrier’s network during the year include: Houston, Chongqing, Phnom Penh, Seattle,

London Heathrow and Oslo

The carrier to register the largest decrease in traffic was EVA Air as demand slipped by 7.4% on 2016 levels to 3.5bn FTK. The Tai-

wanese carrier has been busy reducing capacity over the last couple of years.

IATA integrates Cargo-XML into WCO’s Cargo Targeting System

The International Air Transport Association (IATA) Cargo-XML messaging standard has been fully inte-

grated into the World Customs Organization (WCO) Cargo Targeting System (CTS) risk assessment tool. The

integration of Cargo-XML in the WCO CTS enables electronic communication between airlines and customs

authorities using the IATA Cargo-XML standards format. This will make communication simpler and more

effective, and facilitate more accurate risk assessments by customs authorities using the WCO CTS

application in order to capture advance electronic cargo manifest information.

IATA director general and chief executive officer, Alexandre de Juniac says: “Simplifying processes, enhancing efficiency; and

maximizing safety and security are in everybody’s interest–shippers, border authorities and airlines. Collaboration is critical. And

the integration of Cargo-XML into WCO CTS is the latest example of the positive results that can be achieved.”

“About a third of the value of goods traded across borders are transported by air. We look forward to the further expansion of our

vital work with the WCO in support of efficient world trade.”

WCO secretary general, Kunio Mikuriya adds: “Effective electronic data exchange is integral for Customs authorities to build

accurate risk assessments of cargo shipments. Integrating Cargo-XML into the WCO CTS will allow customs authorities using this

tool to easily access detailed information about shipments, profile these shipments and identify those presenting a high-risk.”

“Using standardized and quality information is key to enhancing security, expedite customs clearance, optimize customs

resources and facilitate global trade.”

IATA’s Cargo-XML eliminates the constraints posed by the traditional Cargo Interchange Message Procedures standard and is

designed to promote broader and seamless data interfaces.
