Cargo Airline Revenue Management
The airline cargo shipping industry benefits from the lessons learned by revenue optimization in the passenger transportation industry. Building on the passenger industry’s collective experiences, the cargo industry has established the infrastructure to support the implementation of revenue optimization solutions. Cargo carriers now quickly can implement pricing analytics, pricing execution, and revenue optimization products with a level of sophistication that previously took the passenger industry decades to achieve. This fast-paced growth in complexity of the cargo industry pricing realm has required increasing demands on cargo carriers’ network and pricing decisions in order to remain competitive.
