    SHANGHAI airports' cargo volumes in 2017 have for the first time exceeded four million tonnes. Prior to this year, only Hong Kong and Memphis have achieved similar results.

    In Shanghai freight moves through two airports in the city, Pudong International (PVG) and Hongqiao International (SHA). The majority of the city's air freight is handled at PVG, where the UPS transit centre, DHL's North Asia hub and FedEx's international cargo express centre are all located.

    Combined, the airports have seen steep growth over the last 15 years, with volumes doubling between 2002 and 2005 to two million tonnes and topping three million tonnes by 2010, reported New York's Air Cargo World.
