Much of this traffic is better served by cargo airports.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, passenger hubs are constrained, with serious question marks over a number of them for their future ability to meet airfreight growth.<\/p>\n<p>This does not mean that cargo airports can go forward on autopilot. They need to invest to raise their game, especially with regard to digitisation.<\/p>\n<p><br><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Airports serving as cargo hubs, according to Putzgerr Image Credit:Google\u00a0 Recently released statistics of US airports from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) show that another cargo airport has broken into the top 20 tier of airports in terms of cargo volume.
