Soaring air cargo spot rates from Bangladesh and Japan and a surge in tonnages from Dubai have further boosted an already buoyant air cargo market in the first half of September, according to the latest weekly figures and analysis from WorldACD Market Data.
Worldwide air cargo tonnages flown increased by +4% in week 37 (9-15 September), week on week (WoW), driven by a +5% increase from Asia Pacific origins, a +6% increase from Central & South America (CSA), and a rebound of +10% from North America origins, linked to Labor Day on 2 September.
