Abstract:
As long as people and freights need to move from one place to another, the civil aviation industry will always exist. In this study, a country-based examination has been made on total airfreight transport. Also, gross domestic product (GDP) and total population data were included in this study. 50 countries were selected according to the most recent value that included the years 2018 or 2019 and 26 of these were included in the analysis which was covered in all three rankings. The purpose of the study is to find the similarities between countries based on the total airfreight transportation, total GDP, and total population. The relationship between the three parameters was examined with the correlation analysis. Afterward, the associated parameters were taken as independent variables and the total airfreight transportation variable was modeled by multiple linear regression analysis. In light of these analyses, GDP and total population have a significant impact on total airfreight transportation. To check the assumptions related to outliers, residuals are determined. To show the outliers and the similarities of the countries clearly, the multidimensional scaling method is used. Multidimensional scaling configuration shows that Turkey and the United Kingdom have similarities in terms of total airfreight numbers.

Abstract:
The planning of air cargo logistics is a complex endeavor that involves the collaboration of multiple logistics agents to deliver shipments in a timely, safe, and economic manner. Airfreight forwarders coordinate and manage shipments for their clients, and with the development of Internet logistics platforms, airfreight forwarders can now trade jobs and resources with other participants effectively. The incorporation of trading alternatives significantly complicates the shipment planning process. This study proposes a dynamic decision framework for air cargo shipment planning, within the dynamic environment of bidding and trading. The framework has three phases: estimation, trading, and execution.

Abstract:
Shipper insights and opinions regarding the characteristics of the market for international airfreight in intermodal logistics were explored in this study. The methodology utilized was focus group research. The findings suggest that shippers’ intermodal airfreight decisions are driven by weight and time sensitivity; that the strength of an organization’s information system, especially in relation to tracking and tracing capabilities, is the most important category of service; that shippers respond very positively to personalized service; and that shipper selection of integrators and/or freight forwarders is destination specific. The research confirms the increasing competitiveness of the intermodal logistics market and suggests that personalized customer service can be a major factor in achieving a competitive advantage.

Abstract:
Salah satu kunci keberhasilan dari sebuah perusahaan pengiriman barang terletak pada kegiatan handling barang yang efektif dan efisien. Untuk dapat berkompetisi dengan baik dengan acuan waktu pelayanan yang efisien, perusahaan jasa airfreight memerlukan kerjasama dengan perusahaan jasa ground handling (PT Jasa Angkasa Semesta dan PT Gapura Angkasa) agar dapat memenuhi kebutuhan pelanggan. Di sinilah letak peran penting perusahaan jasa ground handling terhadap bisnis air cargo. Sesuai dengan konsep aliran logistik secara terpadu maka selayaknya tidak ada sekat (boundary) atau pisahan antara perusahaan jasa ground handling dan airfreight dalam operasionalnya. Keduanya bersama-sama dengan maskapai penerbangan merupakan satu kesatuan untuk tujuan yang sama mengirim cargo pelanggan tepat waktu. Strategi apa yang akan digunakan perusahaan jasa airfreight bergantung kepada perhitungan IFAS dan EFAS untuk mencari titik absis dan ordinat yang menunjukkan posisi strategis perusahaan airfreight saat ini. Sebagai alat analisis kualitatif, analisis SWOT (Strength, Weaknesses, Opportunities, dan Threat) memadai untuk mengetahui posisi strategis perusahaan airfreight dan mengatur langkah strategi apa yang akan digunakan. Kerjasama antara airfreight dan ground handling ini diharapkan akan menghasilkan jasa pelayanan air cargo dengan total waktu proses yang relatif cepat. [The Role of Ground Handling Services to The Air Freight Services in Bali in The Face of Global Competition] One of the successful key of freight forwarder companies lies in their handling operations that executed effectively and efficiently. Most of the companies that can stay competitive in this transportation services business are those which operated with relatively short time in unloading and loading the cargo. In order to make their companies well competed with reference to efficient services time, air freight services companies need to cooperate with ground handling services companies (PT Jasa Angkasa Semesta and PT Gapura Angkasa) so that customer needs can be fulfilled. And that is the important role of ground handling services in the air freight business. In accordance with the integrated logistic flow concept, there should be no operational boundaries between ground handling services companies and air freight services companies. Both of them, together with the airlines, are an entity with the same purpose: to handle the customer cargo right in time. The strategy that will be used by air freight services companies rely on IFAS and EFAS calculation in order to find the correct abscissa and ordinate that indicate the strategic position of the companies at the moment. SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats) used as the tool of qualitative analysis not only for indicating the strategic position of the air freight services companies but also for managing the strategic measures that will be taken. The awareness of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats of the air freight services companies can be used as the benefit in the cooperation with the other services companies, especially ground handling and airlines. The role of ground handling in improving the strengths and using the opportunities while reducing weaknesses and threats is crucial for air freight operations. Thus, cooperation between air freight and ground handling is expected in providing quick processing-cargo services.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to determine the reliability of test results dependent upon blood and plasma sample stability when shipped by airfreight courier for reference laboratory assessment. Of particular interest was evaluation of von Willebrand profile assays and platelet dense granule storage pool analysis. Peripheral venous blood was obtained from healthy volunteers. von Willebrand factor (VWF) activity, VWF antigen, and factor VIII coagulant activity assays were performed immediately following venipuncture with additional aliquots of plasma frozen and stored at −70°C for subsequent analysis 48 hours later. One frozen aliquot was shipped via airfreight for analysis 48 hours later, with another frozen aliquot that remained on-site. Blood was also collected to enumerate platelet dense granules to determine whether shipment would affect results. Statistical analysis of all test results demonstrated significant correlation between immediately assayed samples and samples that were stored for 48 hours at −70°C ( P < .0001), or frozen and shipped on dry ice ( P < .0001) for analysis upon return to our laboratory. No difference was found in the mean number of platelet dense granules between samples retained in our laboratory or samples analyzed upon return of shipment ( P = .751).

Abstract:

A study presenting the differences in corporate culture between South African and Swedish airfreight industries with focus on the excess baggage sectors of the industry. This industry is very competitive and very international as goods are being exported and imported in vast amounts around the world.

Using a web questionnaire and personal interviews, this gave me a better understanding of the present corporate culture and to highlight the differences between the countries in question. Once these differences are laid down the study shows the possibility of mutual interaction between the industry and the countries. It provides the major differences between the countries and brings forth a hypothesis for the report. The study shows that hierarchy levels play a huge role in the South African company; the relatively high uncertainty level of South Africans is a result of the high power distances between management and employees. A South African employee would try to find a solution to any problem while a Swede would discontinue when the first attempt fails. Furthermore my study provides a general idea of each of the countries, but what is evident is that the airfreight industry follows a certain corporate culture of its own and finally due to the countries diversity, South Africa seems to have an advantage when working with different cultures.

Abstract:
This thesis explores three consolidation problems derived from the daily operations of major international airfreight forwarders. First, we study the freight forwarder's unsplittable shipment planning problem in an airfreight forwarding network where a set of cargo shipments have to be transported to given destinations. We provide mixed integer programming formulations that use piecewise-linear cargo rates and account for volume and weight constraints, flight departure/arrival times, as well as shipment-ready times. After exploring the solution of such models using CPLEX, we devise two solution methodologies to handle large problem sizes. The first is based on Lagrangian relaxation, where the problems decompose into a set of knapsack problems and a set of network flow problems. The second is a local branching heuristic that combines branching ideas and local search. The two approaches show promising results in providing good quality heuristic solutions within reasonable computational times, for difficult and large shipment consolidation problems. Second, we further explore the freight forwarder's shipment planning problem with a different type of discount structure - the system-wide discount. The forwarder's cost associated with one flight depends not only on the quantity of freight assigned to that flight, but also on the total freight assigned to other flights operated by the same carrier. We propose a multi-commodity flow formulation that takes shipment volume and over-declaration into account, and solve it through a Lagrangian relaxation approach. We also model the "double-discount" scheme that incorporates both the common flight-leg discount (the one used in the unsplittable shipment problem) and the system-wide discount offered by cargo airlines. Finally, we focus on palletized loading using unit loading devices (ULDs) with pivots, which is different from what we assumed in the previous two research problems. In the international air cargo business, shipments are usually consolidated into containers; those are the ULDs. A ULD is charged depending on whether the total weight exceeds a certain threshold, called the pivot weight. Shipments are charged the under-pivot rate up to the pivot weight. Additional weight is charged at the over-pivot rate. This scheme is adopted for safety reasons to avoid the ULD overloading. We propose three solution methodologies for the air-cargo consolidation problem under the pivot-weight (ACPW), namely: an exact solution approach based on branch-and-price, a best fit decreasing loading heuristic, and an extended local branching. We found superior computational performance with a combination of the multi-level variables and a relaxation-induced neighborhood search for local branching.

The purpose of this study is to explore selections of air freights forwarders for High-Tech firms, specifically the ones in IC design industry. Based on the features of logistical operations of IC design firms and relevant studies, the assessment criteria (ACs) for the firms to select air freights forwarders are first investigated. A fuzzy AHP approach is then employed to weights those AFs, by which an assessment form is constructed. Finally, the IC design firms in Taiwan are empirically investigated to validated the research. The results can provide practical information for domestic IC design companies to select adequate air freight forwarders in improving their logistical operations. Further, he results also can provide useful references for air freight forwards to improve their service quality.

The female working for the transport personnel in air transport department are different from that of office workers. Comparing with office workers, they have longer working hours in a day and more pressure at work, so their personal physical and mental health and married quality will naturally be influenced. In particular, the work of the female transportation service in the air transport department is timeliness and urgent,which they needs to face the request and complain of the customers and field operator in airport chronically. As a result, it is not easy to control in emotional management, which may affect the relationship with their family. All of these conditions about work and family life are the problems they have to face and adapt. In addition to spending more effort to manage, how to maintain the quality of married and improve well-being without affecting the interaction with family members becomes an important issue for them. The purpose of the study is to investigate the current status about marital quality and well-being of female transport personnel in north district air transport department, and understand the difference of personal background factor to analyze its differentiation and correlation between marital quality and well-being of them and explanatory power. This study collected information through a questionnaire survey, and selected the married female transport personnel of air transport department living in the north district as the main respondents by sampling the quota ratio. We distributed 220 questionnaires and collected 212 totally. The effectively questionnaires were 212, and the effective questionnaire rate was 96.36%. The research tools we used included “Personal Background Information Questionnaires”, ”Marital Quality Scale” and “Well-being Scale”. This research would use the statistical software SPSS for Windows 22.0 for descriptive statistics, single sample t-test, single-factor variance analysis, Pearson product-related correlation analysis and Regression analysis. The results are summarized as follow: 1. The “marital quality” of married female transport personnel in the air transport department tends to be in a good condition. Among them, “respect and acceptance” is the best and “consistency” is the lowest in the marital quality. 2. The “well-being” of married female transport personnel in the air transport export department tends to be at a high level. Among them, the evaluation about “optimistic” level is the highest, while the “positive emotion” is the lowest. 3. The “marital quality” of married female transport personnel in the air transport department will vary significantly depending on the age, the years of marital, the educational level, the number of children and the individual average monthly income. 4. The “well-being” of married female transport personnel in the air transport export department will vary significantly depending on the age, the years of marital, the educational level, the number of children and the individual average monthly income. 5. There is a significantly high positive correlation between the “marital quality” and “well-being” of married female transport personnel in the air transport export department, indicating that the better the marital quality, the higher the feeling of well-being, and vice versa. 6. The “Personal background” and “marital quality” of married female transport personnel in the air transport department has sixty-seven percent interpretation ratio of “well-being”, indicating that the better the marital quality, the higher the feeling of well-being. According to the conclusions about this study suggested that female transportation personnel should start with mutual respect and tolerance and gain a consensus on married life between husband and wife through continuous communication, coordination and emotional integration to create a well-being married. Besides couples should cultivate common interests, expand their social circle, find and establish a common goal to improve their individual feeling of well-being. In order to enhance the married quality and well-being, it requires empathy, inclusive, communication and maintaining a positive and good mental state to establish a life model that belongs to each other only. Further, it recommended Air Export department, department of Air Freight Forwarder, should not only formulate a more specific welfare policy, adjust the work schedule and improve overtime system, but also hold a variety of couple talks, courses or related activities to enhance the married quality and well-being of married female transport personnel.

Abstract:
如今許多商品都採用航空運輸。據預測,未來20年中世界航空貨運量將至少翻番。類似旅行中介,空運貨代是航空公司和貨主的中間人。貨代處理了超過80的國際航空貨運量,並以及時、安全、經濟的方式代表貨主管理整個運輸過程。
本論文包括關於空運貨代的三項研究:第一項研究(第一章)中,空運貨代的資源規劃和收入管理被結合起來。在資源規劃方面,我們考慮從航空公司、合作夥伴、以及分包商,分別購買多少艙位。在收入管理方面,我們考慮兩個細分市場,即固定客戶和臨時客戶,並決定接受或拒絶請求的準則。首先,我們考慮固定客戶先於臨時客戶到達的模式,並考察資源規劃決策和收入管理決策之間的關係。然後,我們考慮固定客戶和臨時客戶可以以任何順序到達的模式,同樣,我們考察資源規劃與收入管理決策的互動,並比較兩個到達模式的結果。
第二項研究(第二章)中,我們設計了一個針對貨物競價和物流規劃問題的啟發式算法。該算法可得出物流規劃環境中的最優競價策略。它包括兩個階段;第一階段遍歷出價決策,以及決定競拍窗口中的物流分配,第二階段決定之後的物流分配。這兩個階段的物流分配都由禁忌環境下的鄰域搜索決定。我們還提出了算法的改進策略。實驗表明算法是有效的。該算法由Leung et al.(2013)的論文“An Airfreight Forwarder'sShipment Bidding and Logistics Planning中描述的問題所啟發。事實上,它解決了該論文中的兩階段隨機規劃問題。雖然該算法僅在該論文的第4節, 但為了把它放在良好的背景下,經作者許可該論文被完整地被列入本章。
第三項研究(第三章)中,我們考慮貨代的貨物競拍和收入管理問題。貨物的網上競拍是許多物流平台的普遍做法。在競拍環境中,貨代的收入管理具有挑戰性,且必須基於組合的概念。此問題因物流規劃的考慮變得更加複雜。我們首先不考慮物流規劃,構建了一個基本模型,並得出最佳決策的解析結果。之後,我們擴展了基本模型以加入物流規劃決策。我們還基於一個例子探討了管理見解。
Nowadays, a wide range of goods are shipped by air, especially those of high value-to-weight ratio. It is forecasted that world air cargo traffic will more than double over the next 20 years. Analogous to travel agents, airfreight forwarders are intermediaries between airlines and shippers, handling more than 80% of international airfreight volume. On behalf of shippers, forwarders manage the entire shipping process in a timely, safe, and cost-effective manner.
The thesis consists of three studies in airfreight forwarding: In the first study (Chapter One), we integrate an airfreight forwarder’s resource planning and revenue management. On resource planning, we consider the problem of determining the amount of cargo space to acquire from airlines, partners, and subcontracting agents. On revenue management, we consider two market segments, namely regular customers and adhoc customers, and determine the criterion based on which a present request is accepted or rejected. We first consider a customer arrival pattern where regular customers arrive before ad hoc customers. The relationship between resource planning decisions and revenue management decisions are examined. We then consider an arrival pattern where regular and ad hoc customers may arrive in any order. Similarly, the interactive effects of resource planning and revenue management decisions are investigated and the results of the two arrival patterns are compared.
In the second study (Chapter Two), we develop a heuristic algorithm for an airfreight forwarder’s shipment bidding and logistics planning problem. The algorithm generates an optimal bidding strategy in a logistics planning environment. It consists of two stages; the first stage enumerates possible bidding decisions utilizing a portfolio tree and addresses logistics assignments during the bidding window, while the second stage addresses subsequent logistics assignments. The logistics assignments at both stages are determined by neighborhood search within a Tabu environment. Strategies are also proposed to streamline the algorithm. Computational experiments show that it is an effective one. The algorithm is motivated by the problem described in the paper “An Airfreight Forwarder’s Shipment Bidding and Logistics Planning by Leung et al. (2013). In fact, it is used to solve a two-stage stochastic program formulated in the paper. Although the algorithm is only in Section 4 of the paper, to put it in a good context, the entire paper is included in this chapter with permissions from the authors.
In the third study (Chapter Three), we consider an airfreight forwarder’s shipment bidding and revenue management problem. Online bidding of shipments is a common practice at many web-based logistics platforms. In the bidding environment, the forwarder’s revenue management is quite challenging and must be based on a portfolio concept. The problem is further complicated by logistics planning considerations. In this study, we first formulate a basic model without considering logistics planning aspects. Analytical results are derived on the optimal shipment portfolio and the optimal bid prices. We then extend the basic model to incorporate logistics planning decisions. Managerial insights are explored by studying a numerical example.

In recent years, consumer technology products have been continuously introduced, and airlines are faced with the need to carry more and more diversified dangerous goods. Therefore, how to control and prevent accidents caused by these dangerous goods is an important issue. The main purpose of this study is to investigate the operational safety of dangerous goods in air cargo. In this study, the risk factors (Risk Factors, RFs) of dangerous goods operation safety are determined by the attributes, classification and operation procedures of air cargo dangerous goods, and related literatures. Fuzzy AHP is used to evaluate RFs. Weights. Secondly, this study will then build risk matrix and risk indicators based on these weights to evaluate the risk levels of the above RFs. Finally, this study takes the operational safety of air cargo contractors in the Greater Kaohsiung area as an example to conduct empirical research on models. The results of this study can be provided to domestic air cargo contractors as a reference for their development of safety policies.

Abstract:
In February 2002, the Financial Times ran a full-page article on the dangers posed by excessive “food miles.” It was written by the editor of Country Life, a magazine dedicated to the preservation of “the British way of life.” Like many critics of food globalization, the author argued that the cheap food policies that originally drove the United Kingdom to import much of its food had hidden costs and posed grave risks both at home and abroad. The article noted that the United Kingdom, despite its experience of mad cow and foot-and- mouth diseases, still imported meat from countries known to be “breeding grounds for killer plagues”—in particular, species-jumping pathogens such as AIDS and the Ebola virus. Despite Britain’s capacity to produce many kinds of fresh fruits and vegetables, supermarkets imported them from countries where, the article said, export farming “deprived” hungry people of land for their own food crops. The airfreight transport of such foods consumed huge quantities of fossil fuel, which drove global warming, which might, the article implied, hasten the onset of geopolitical conflict over increasingly scarce farmland. To avert this dark future, the author called on “concerned shoppers” to use their buying power to “force supermarkets” to purchase and promote more local foods. And, to make perfectly clear who was to blame for burning all these food miles, the accompanying illustration featured two cartoonish characters, one a businesslike carrot wearing the brand of Tesco, the country’s biggest food retailer, and the other a Zambian green bean dressed as an ugly tourist (Aslet 2001). In turn-of-the-21st-century Britain, countryside preservationists were among the many activists who saw the African green bean and “baby veg” as symbolic of food globalization gone wrong, and who called on shoppers to help make things right. The supermarkets that stocked these petite, prepackaged vegetables intended, of course, a very different message—namely that convenient, novel fresh foods belonged in the British way of life, ideally 365 days a year. Yet this marketing strategy had a paradoxical payoff.

Abstract:
From the air, the international airport in Ouagadougou, the capital of Burkina Faso, does not appear to be in the middle of anything except the desert. But every winter it becomes a center of intense activity and often high tension, as green beans from throughout the country pour into the airport packhouses. If all goes well, the beans are flown out the same day they are trucked in, and end up on dinner tables in France. In fact, things often do not go well, and so many green beans end up in soup pots closer to home. Indeed, the abundance of delicate green beans found in Burkina Faso’s marketplaces during January and February testifies to the frequent failures of the country’s export ambitions. Green beans and other garden vegetables were brought to colonial Burkina Faso (then Upper Volta) in the early 20th century by French missionaries and colonial administrators who, apart from their personal interest in having these familiar foods available, saw the introduction of French vegetable gardening as part of their civilizing mission in Africa. They did not care much whether Africans ate à la francais, but they did hope that market gardening (or maraichage) would help feed growing colonial towns and, in the process, create a modern, industrious, prosperous and thus stable African peasantry. Decades later in independent Upper Volta, remarkably similar goals fueled government and foreign development agency efforts to promote irrigated vegetable production for overseas markets. Especially when repeated droughts in the 1960s and 1970s raised concerns about long-term climate change, it appeared that peasants needed the income that irrigated, high-value export crops could provide in order to make up for possible shortfalls in rainy season staple grain production. So with generous foreign technical and financial assistance, the country’s state-run peasant cooperatives became in the late 1960s some of sub-Saharan Africa’s earliest exporters of airfreight fresh green beans. For many years, its export volume was second only to Kenya’s. By the late 1990s, Burkina Faso’s green bean farmers missed the days when their crops were known as “green gold.”

Abstract:
The transport business is governed by system of international rules and regulations, which control the behavior between the different economic agents in the supply chain. For the airfreight industry main standard is the Montreal Convention, for the road transport it is the CMR document, and for ocean freight, such role has the rules from Hague-Visby. The report will analyze their interpretations on the COVID-19 pandemic and their economic effects on the transport industry as a whole.
