Air transportation, as one of the main types of cargo transportation, is in high demand at certain times of the year, which determines its seasonality.
The greatest demand for air transportation has been reached in the last few months of the calendar year. This is due to the start of sales in honor of Black Friday. Retailers are looking forward to stocking the store shelves before the rush of customers. Immediately after Black Friday comes Cyber Monday, when people, by inertia, continue to make purchases only on the Internet. The calendar year ends with the Christmas and New Year holidays.
It is also worth mentioning the founding day of the People’s Republic of China – the main public holiday of China, when holidays (October 1st-3rd) are combined with weekends and together form a non-working week called Golden week.
This means that factories and suppliers are closed for a whole week right in the middle of the season. For example, in the US, Thanksgiving weekend sales depend on orders being received before Golden Week, making the window for shipping on time for the holidays even smaller.
The air transportation niche is full of details and nuances at any time of the year. Competent logistics, customs clearance, insurance, infrastructure, as well as restrictions imposed on the transported cargo – all these are just the main factors that must be taken into account for efficient cargo transportation.
