Air cargo plays a vital role in our globalized and fast-paced world in which trade is the foundation for long-term prosperity. Removing barriers to trade is a win-win. It will shore-up the foundations for stronger economies. And an improved business environment for air cargo will help facilitate much needed technology and process investments so that the industry will be an even stronger catalyst for growth and development. A third of the value of goods traded internationally are delivered by air. But the value of air cargo goes much deeper in the prosperity that it creates in supporting jobs and economic opportunity.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>To read the entire news release: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.iata.org\/pressroom\/pr\/Pages\/2016-03-07-01.aspx\">IATA<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>IATA: Air Freight Makes Solid Start to 2016 International Air Transport Association (IATA) released data for global air freight markets in January showing a rise in freight tonne kilometers (FTK) of 2.7% compared to January 2015.
