Flights by all-cargo aircraft (‘cargo’ for short) complement passenger flights in a couple of ways. First, they carry around half of air cargo, while the rest travels in the holds of passenger aircraft. What is less well known is that cargo flights have two busy periods, just before the passenger day starts in earnest, and just as the passenger flights are finishing for the day. So their demands on the network, which are light as cargo amounts to fewer than 3% of departures (2019 statistics), complement the demands from passenger flights.
