Summary... Growth is modest in the Cargo Airport Sector, NYC area is untouchable, Ohio is a Juggernaut, but Philly can be beaten. What about Allentown and Erie?
The highest growth was achieved by two airports dominated by UPS: regional hub
Philadelphia which grew by just under 24% in total for the ten-year period
and UPS mini-hub Bradley which grew by slightly more than 32% for the same
period. Based almost entirely on growth by belly carriers operating
international flights, Washington Dulles experienced almost 16% growth. When
growth is annualized for the 10-year period, the rates are tellingly modest
for all three airports.
Basically only Hub centers will increase in the cargo airport industry.
Foreign carriers increasingly expanded to other major hubs such as Atlanta,
Dallas and Houston but did not venture into non-traditional gateways
.
Hazleton has little chance of getting Foreign traffic.
1.5.2 Carrier Composition
Philadelphia International Airport (PHL)
The current master plan alternatives are proposing a new parallel runway that would eliminate the current location of the UPS facility requiring UPS to move to a new site on the Airport.
HAZLETON + UPS = Fun for the whole family.
JFK
40% of total cargo presently carried in bellies of passenger aircraft is largely untouchable.
35% carried in freighters operated by passenger carriers would require a very difficult splitting of operations. 90% of cargo presently moving through JFK is somewhat beholden to the network established there.
Looks like we cannot steal any cargo from NYC
The PANYNJ identified Stewart as ‘heir apparent’ but may find convincing carriers and forwarders to leave the traditional gateway difficult.
Cargo from NYC is controlled by a monopoly..... BOOOOOO
