“Capacity is going to be king for the rest of 2024.” That’s the word from forwarders ...
The air cargo industry has enjoyed some good news lately. And according to this study by commissioned by IATA, there is more room for optimism.

Of course, while statistics like this could help associations like IATA and TIACA persuade some states to support air freight connectivity – there is still of course the gap in belief in the industry itself to overcome.
