Aviation and Air Transport

In aviation, what decides is not shipping your goods by air but actually operating the air transport service. An exporter that ships goods by air, or a contractor that builds an airport terminal, is not a candidate here; both fall under separate headings.

Most commonly confused in Aviation and Air Transport

Shipping goods by air does not make you a candidate here

An exporter that ships goods by air is not a candidate here; the candidate is the carrier that operates the air transport service itself, the ground handling provider, or the airport/terminal operator. Shipping alone is a Logistics topic.

See the Logistics and Supply Chain sector guide

Airport construction and maintenance is a separate heading

Building or maintaining an airport or terminal is assessed separately from operating the air transport service; that role falls under Construction and Built Environment.
