It’s been an interesting period for the air cargo industry as volumes have been trending downwards since the first half of last year, while the capacity situation continues to change and rates remain above pre-Covid levels despite recent declines.

The fall in volumes reflects high inflation that is affecting consumer spending, the ongoing war in Ukraine’s effect on trade flows, the strength of the US dollar and high inventory levels amongst many major retailers.

Meanwhile, the recovery of the ocean industry has seen market share gained during the pandemic move back to the box shipping industry.

Looking ahead, IATA has predicted a 4.3% decline in air cargo volumes this year to 57.7m tonnes and yields are expected to decline by around 22%.

DSV executive vice president air and sea in the US Mads Ravn agrees that the outlook is tough, although he is hoping for an improvement later in the year.

“We do not know how and when the global economy will recover, but a small uptick in the second half of 2023 is realistic,” he says.

“Inventory levels still need to replenish to meet demand, and with a looming recession, we do not see that happening until the second quarter for particular retail commodities.

“There is massive pressure on cost savings from all sectors after logistics spend went through the roof in the past couple of years.

“Transit time on the ocean has improved, and with slow demand, we see air cargo levels declining further in the short term.”

He adds there are also uncertainties around China’s re-opening and the situation around Russia.
