What mode of logistics transportation has the highest fixed cost?

Okay, so you want me to rewrite that “highest fixed cost in logistics” thing, but like, make it sound like I’m talking, right? Like a real person who’s maybe thought about this stuff a little? Alright, I can do that. Here’s my take:

Okay, so what has the highest fixed costs in logistics? Hmm… good question! You know, when you start thinking about moving stuff around, like really moving stuff around, it’s easy to just think about the trucks, right? But it’s so much more complicated.

Honestly, I’m pretty sure air freight is where you see the REALLY big upfront costs. Like, think about it for a second – you’re not just buying a truck, you’re buying an airplane! And it’s not just any airplane, it’s a big cargo plane. Can you even imagine the price tag? I bet that thing needs some special maintenance, too.

Plus, it’s not just the plane itself, is it? You’ve got airport fees, which I hear are insane. Then there’s the specialized equipment needed to load and unload all that stuff, and trained people to operate it. All those fancy conveyor belts and crazy-strong forklifts aren’t cheap!

I remember seeing a documentary once about FedEx, and the scale of their operation was just mind-boggling. It made me think about all the hidden costs you just don’t see when you’re waiting for that package to arrive.

So yeah, when it comes to fixed costs… I’m putting my money on air freight. It just seems like it hits you with a huge bill before you even get started. Though now I’m wondering about building a whole new railroad… Nah, air freight is probably still worse. What do you think?
