The Airport Authority also plans to fully leverage the airport’s advantages in handling high-value and temperature-controlled air cargo. Among them, jointly promoting the “sea-air cargo intermodal” mode with Dongguan and planning to complete the first phase construction of the “Hong Kong International Airport Logistics Park” permanent facilities by the end of next year, gradually reaching an annual handling capacity of one million tons. The Airport Authority will actively expand air cargo services, including cold chain cargo services at the Dongguan Logistics Park and jointly developing international freight services with Zhuhai.
HKELA President Suki Cheung stated, “We strongly believes that these measures, as well as the three-runway system project, will bring more opportunities and competitive advantages to the industry. The association will actively support the initiatives of the government and the Airport Authority, promoting the industry’s full utilisation of these measures to explore broader logistics and e-commerce markets.
