Abstract

Rapid economic growth, especially the growth of China's import and export trade and the rapid development of cross-border e-commerce, has been accompanied by a rapid increase in demand for air cargo. However, the growing demand for air logistics is not matched by a rapidly growing infrastructure and unreasonable logistics planning. Chinese airline companies have long had a mindset of valuing passengers over cargo, with little emphasis on the flow of goods, resulting in high logistics costs. Air logistics relies on air transport and the distribution centers of air logistics enterprises assume the role of bridges between air and ground, coordinating upstream and downstream enterprises. Building a distribution centre in a reasonable location can improve overall logistics efficiency, enhance service quality and reduce distribution costs.
