Strategies for a global logistics and economic hub: Incheon International Airport

Hunsoo Lee and Han Mo Yang

Journal of Air Transport Management, 2003, vol. 9, issue 2, 113-121

Abstract: This paper looks at strategies that may enable the incremental development of a ‘Winged City’ around Incheon International Airport (IIA), Korea. This would involve the creation of a super hub for transportation, logistics, and international business. It identifies the potentiality of IIA as a logistics hub in Northeast Asia and develops options to improve its competitiveness. The airport is believed to have strong potential to grow into a key logistics hub in Northeast Asia. Success, however, depends on whether the airport is capable of rapidly attracting a critical mass of global logistics service providers.
