"We have often witnessed the belly capacity utilisation of scheduled commercial flights is below 100%, at times about 50%. There is a huge opportunity for airlines to leverage demand interlining on Freightchain to fill the belly space to deliver significant convenience, so they never have to fly empty." The Freightchain platform is run on blockchain.
