Transportation and logistics management are critical to the economic growth of a country. Smart transportation is becoming possible thanks to the advancement of digital technology implementation. To decrease the vulnerability of digitized systems from cyber-attacks, Blockchain has recently become one of the most commonly adopted technologies for free, decentralized, and trustworthy intelligent transportation networks. By analyzing the potential application of Blockchain technologies in the smart transportation of cargo by air, this study hopes to contribute to the area of logistics management. For efficient and safe air cargo movement, we propose a distributed blockchain layered framework that helps in transforming air logistics operations in national and international trades and we validated our framework by mathematically comparing the cost with and without the implementation of Blockchain.
