capacity bottlenecks

Capacity bottlenecks at Beijing and Shanghai airports.

 

Due to staffing problems of the airline handling agents in Beijing and Shanghai, caused by a COVID outbreak, several airlines have announced reduced cargo capacity to Shanghai and Beijing. Most freighters will continue to operate as scheduled, but with reduced cargo. In order to avoid a backlog, transport options will be restricted, which will probably lead to rate increases by the airlines due to the even further reduced capacities.

 

It is not possible to predict how long this situation will last.

 

Please contact your contact at Expo-Cargo Ltd. if you have an air freight shipment from or to Beijing or Shanghai. We will be happy to advise you on the most suitable alternative solution.
