This year is difficult for freight forwarders and shippers. The shipping market has reduced their profits a lot. Now there are warnings in the air transport market in many places.

According to the feedback of air transport market information, the fourth China International Import Expo will be held in Shanghai from November 5 to 10.

In order to ensure order, the East China Administration of civil aviation of China decided to suspend passenger to cargo flights and cancel a large number of flights before November 13.

This will lead to the accumulation of goods at the airport, which will have a serious impact on the timely delivery of foreign customers. Many freight forwarders have to choose other airports, which will push up air transport prices.

Now the air transport price has reached 70 yuan / kg, some North American routes and up to 100 yuan / kg. If air freight prices continue to rise, shippers may not dare to ship, because shipping means losing money.

Hong Kong's air transport market is also very grim. Due to the impact of the epidemic in previous weeks, many flights have also been cancelled. This resulted in a large amount of cargo piled up at the airport.

It is understood that some cargo agents received the news of the rise in prices of airlines, and that all air freight rates in Chinese mainland and Hongkong will be soaring next week.

Take another look at the US air transport market. American Airlines suddenly cancelled 634 flights yesterday, accounting for more than 12% of the total operation of the day.

Since October 29, American Airlines has cancelled more than 1000 flights due to weather and personnel shortage.

Some airlines said that from November 1, 1800 flight attendants will return from vacation, and the rest will return before December.

Southwest Airlines said earlier this month that it cancelled more than 2000 flights and lost $75 million due to the collapse in October.

In 2021, the international air cargo warehouse explosion may continue until the end of the year, and the air freight rate is expected to continue to rise.

GLA recommends that the freight forwarder plan to lock the shipping space and price in advance to ensure the safe arrival of goods.
