Ontario enjoys good growth in October

Ontario International Airport in California saw its commercial freight volumes grow by 4.6% year on year in October to reach a figure of more than 66,000 tons.

Mail shipment volumes, meanwhile, decreased almost 42% in October and by 23% on a year-to-date basis.
