The impact of COVID-19 on the aviation industry has been quite bitter-sweet, as the period of 2020-21 witnessed airline personnel in the passenger field lose jobs yet has also been a very busy last two years for international air cargo. The type of air cargo has also changed because of the COVID-19 pandemic as there has been an increase in consumer shopping and the volume of air cargo. This has led to the use of a wide range of facilities to handle this expansion such as cooling facilities, time-sensitive security, which all has to be incorporated. Accordingly, in an effort to alleviate some of the increasing strain on the roads and lower carbon emissions, the European Union for instance is advocating for a greater use of intermodal transportation. However, is the legal framework governing international air cargo entirely adequate for embracing the industry’s diverse approaches to intermodality, capacity contracts, and associated decisions? This paper seeks to address that conundrum.
