Digital air cargo enables shippers to benefit from transparent, real-time pricing for air cargo space on air cargo carriers.
Like booking a flight on Expedia, where users see a marketplace-style layout of airlines and their current prices for certain trips, digital air cargo enables shippers to do the same with booking air cargo. Prices are set by the market, not by contracts or stipulations favorable to some groups and unfavorable to others.
Digital air cargo or dynamic air cargo pricing, the concept, is a comprehensive blueprint, aligning carriers, forwarders/GSAs, and shippers in real-time for optimal pricing and capacity matching.
DAC, in practice, is real-time spot pricing for air cargo aggregated in an Expedia-style setup for cargo carriers to browse and book air cargo space on specific routes from specific airlines directly.
Like Expedia or Uber pricing for travel, DAC information is refreshed several times per day reflecting the latest availability and prices.
No. The value of DAC is that there aren’t contracts that lock shippers into specific rates with specific routes and airlines. The value of DAC is the spot rate prices are set by space available on specific airlines on specific routes. Prices will increase or decrease as availability changes..
