The article highlights the peculiarities of air cargo transportation, its complexity, special requirements and the most important components of delivery. In addition, the factors of influence on air cargo transportation are characterised, and the internal properties of cargo, in particular special cargo categories, are described. The process of planning transportation and preparing cargo for delivery by air is described. Since air transport is a mainline transport mode and provides airport-to-airport delivery, other modes of transport are additionally used for servicing the cargo flows it is involved in, at least for the first and last mile road transport. Therefore, the process of cargo delivery involving air transport was characterised. The analysis of scientific researches allowed to identify the dual role of transport in the logistics system, the possibility of using a multiplicity of delivery schemes according to alternatives, taking into account the combinatorics of operations, the application of the symbiosis model of aircraft fleet selection and airline network configuration, management of cargo delivery technology in global supply chains based on the interests of different parties, the peculiarities of creating an integrated air-maritime logistics centre, etc. At the same time, no studies have been found that provide a comprehensive assessment of existing methods and models of cargo delivery involving air transport in the context of international integration. It is noted that the integration processes in air transport continue to develop, and they have been characterised in detail and prospects for development have been identified. Approaches to improving methods and developing models of cargo delivery involving air transport in the context of international integration are proposed, which will allow to move to the direct creation of new effective tools.
