What are the advantages of air transport?

Compared with other modes of transportation, international air transportation has incomparable advantages by taking airplanes as the means of transportation. The main features are as follows:

1. It is fast, because air transportation flies in the sky at a speed of 600 km/h, which has the advantage of high speed compared with other trains and ships.

2. Not affected by the ground conditions, air transportation uses the sky as a natural passage, not limited by geographical conditions, and the ground conditions are harsh. Inland areas with inconvenient transportation are very suitable, which is not conducive to the import and export of resources and can promote economic development.

3. Save packaging, insurance, interest and other expenses. Due to the use of air transport, the turnover time of goods on the way is short and the turnover speed is fast, and the inventory of enterprises can be reduced accordingly, which is also conducive to the recovery of funds and the reduction of interest expenses.

4. Low damage rate and good safety. Because the price of air freight itself is relatively high, and the operation process is much stricter than other modes of transportation, the damage rate of goods is low in the whole freight link.
