Cathay Cargo’s booth at the IATA World Cargo Symposium 2024.
Cathay Cargo took centre stage as host airline of the IATA World Cargo Symposium 2024, which welcomed a record-breaking 1,900 delegates to Hong Kong in March. The annual event provides a platform for air cargo industry leaders to exchange ideas, and safety, security, and sustainability were key areas of focus this year. Other issues highlighted were the exponential growth in e-commerce and the need for improved visibility and collaboration across the industry. Hong Kong is the world’s busiest cargo airport and Cathay Cargo’s active role in driving digitalisation, as well as continually seeking new ways to improve security and ensure the sustainability of its business, showcased the Hong Kong International Airport as an open and innovative global super cargo connector for the aviation industry.
