Aircargo Communities Inc, also known as Air Cargo Inc, is the largest network of Air Freight Cartage agents and trucking companies providing services to the airline and freight forwarding community in North America. This network was established in 1941 during World War II by major US carriers including United, American, TWA, and Eastern to accommodate their ground transportation needs. After the deregulation of the industry in the early 1980s, the ACI model became a standard in the Freight Forwarding industry. The ACI Air freight Directory is used by thousands of Freight Forwarders and Airlines in Northern America and is referred to as the “bible” of the domestic air freight.
Air Cargo Inc recently acquired Logistics News International, established in 1998.
Air Cargo Inc publishes the Air Freight Directory, also known as the ACI Guide.
Famous quotes containing the words air and/or cargo:
“All things are flowing, even those that seem immovable. The adamant is always passing into smoke. The plants imbibe the materials which they want from the air and the ground. They burn, that is, exhale and decompose their own bodies into the air and earth again. The animal burns, or undergoes the like perpetual consumption. The earth burns, the mountains burn and decompose, slower, but incessantly.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Nitrates and phosphates for ammunition. The seeds of war. They’re loading a full cargo of death. And when that ship takes it home, the world will die a little more.”
—Earl Felton, and Richard Fleischer. Captain Nemo (James Mason)
