Internationally, revenue management in air passenger transportation has been achievedremarkable results, many airlines are using this powerfully competitive tool to improve theeffectiveness of the company. Meanwhile, with the rapid development of air cargo, they also started tointroduce this management technique. In China, the revenue management techniques were started toutilize lately, there are still a large gap compared to foreign countries. But the air cargo revenuemanagement research begun to be explored by more and more scholars. Because of the awareness ofthe advanced revenue management techniques by the airlines, also the urge of the transition of theairline cargo revenue management from theoretical perspective to practical perspective, they havebeen the necessary means to improve production efficiency and seek a higher level of return.Combining the global air cargo income management which is under the premise of relevantresearch results, this paper studies the dynamic pricing and air freight industry in China shippingspace control optimization problems. This article mainly discuss two parts: first,combined with theactual situation of the domestic air freight and with the application of demand elasticity coefficienttheory and price of game theory, I set a model about freight rate dynamic multi-stage for manyairlines in the competitive market environment. In the process, I also considered the cargo volume,weight and the constraint for pricing differences of the airline market share, the change of themaximum benefits to aviation company goal; Second, considering the passenger luggage quantity andinterim changes cost as the influence factors, I suggest to set a control optimization model for multileg cargo space. In the condition, the passenger cabin abdominal capacity is not fixed and the airtransport aircraft cabin and cargo hold space for the control of the situation. Besides, consideringpassenger shipping space for controlling the decision factors, more study have to be done.To increase the airlines revenue, these two models which were in compliance with the stowage plancase both select the maximal profit pricing schemes and shipping space control scheme. According tothe data simulation model, I verify the usability and get the plan which is provided for the airlines tohave the direct income management pricing and shipping space control scheme.
