Abstract

This paper provides an analysis of China's air cargo flows. We identify major air transport hubs in China and examine cargo movements between them. We also discuss some of the difficulties in comparing air cargo data between Mainland China and Hong Kong, and point out the areas where China's data system can be further improved. In addition, the paper provides overall statistics on China's aviation and describes air cargo trends in China.
