  • Financial constraints, for example leasing payments for aircraft, salaries, electricity and payments to providers
  • Those who are ‘overshadowed’ by more visible actors in the cargo supply chain, like ground handling companies, shippers, IT providers and ground transport
  • Regulatory constraints and the need for the relaxation of processes and restrictions on air cargo movements
  • Examples of how the air cargo supply chain entities are coping with the challenges
  • Efforts to facilitate the restart of aviation operations; does cargo require special treatment?
  • The use of innovative procedures to increase the efficiency of cargo movement and build a more resilient aviation system in the longer term
  • The need to develop procedures involving employees and their health and safety, creation of emergency plans to anticipate this type of crisis.
