Oleg Sergeev: Demand for air cargo will continue to grow after the end of the pandemic

Demand growth will be fueled by e-retail sales, which will hit $ 5.4 trillion in 2022.

International analysts predict explosive growth in e-commerce next year. According to experts, digital retail sales in 2022 will exceed the $ 5 trillion bar. This will lead to an increase in demand for cargo transportation amid continuing capacity constraints.

Currently, about 80% of cross-border e-commerce is done by air, but flight disruptions and scheduling mean that without smart tools, airlines will have to waste money and resources. It is also logical to assume that airlines will continue to feel the impact of disruptions and late schedule changes for many months to come. The situation can be saved by digitalization, the role of which will continue to grow and, ultimately, it will become a prerequisite for successful business.

Freight carriers, including ZetAvia, are striving to ensure the stability and resilience of the aviation industry as uncertainty remains about the number of passengers on commercial flights.
