China's insatiable demand for luxury goods gets own Cargo route

Alibaba’s logistics arm is launching direct cargo flights between Singapore and China’s Hainan Island, seeking to bolster the supply of luxury goods for voracious Chinese shoppers after the pandemic halted global travel.
Cainiao Smart Logistics Network Ltd. will run the first direct freight flight from Singapore to the city of Sanya on Sunday, carrying duty free cosmetics from brands including Estée Lauder and Clarins, James Zhao, the general manager of Cainiao’s global supply chain, told Bloomberg news in an interview.
