The air cargo industry has faced severe downtime in the past two years. However, the demand for air transport never died down.
In 2021, it grew at an average of over 6% amidst the supply chain congestion and by 2.5% for international operations in February 2022 alone compared to the last year. The demand for air cargo had just surpassed pre-pandemic levels until Omicron, and the war in Eastern Europe emerged.
These factors, combined with the zero-covid policy of some countries, have deeply affected the demand and capacity for air cargo. The Asia Pacific contributes around one-third of the total air cargo global movement.

Air cargo remains a trustworthy, faster, and preferred mode of transport for many shippers. However, with the industry’s dire circumstances, customers must look for partners who remain immune.
