This image depicts a logistics and cargo handling scene, with neatly packed pallets of goods secured by netting on an airport tarmac. In the background, an airplane is ready for cargo loading or unloading, symbolizing the international reach of air freight. The sunlight and clear sky evoke a sense of global movement and trade efficiency.

In the context of the global economy in 2019, this image reflects a period when international trade was robust, with logistics companies investing in speed and efficiency to meet rising e-commerce and manufacturing demands. Despite looming trade tensions and tariff uncertainties—such as U.S.-China disputes—logistics and air freight continued to be key drivers of globalization.

A highlighted note in the image mentions tariffs and "de minimis" regulations as factors limiting sharp changes in shipping prices, an issue that gained attention as governments reconsidered import thresholds to balance customs revenue with trade facilitation.
