With full Brazil 2014 fervour, Seabury, the normally sensible-to-a-fault, data-driven consultancy, has tasked two senior analysts to determine how an Air Cargo World Cup would look.

Seabury itself is about to see a new team, and this summer it will welcome two well-known names to its air cargo division.
