WorldACD has done a deep dive into January and February’s air cargo
figures – and the results are less optimistic than the carriers would
like. Asia Pacific is a star performer: output grew 19%, year on year,
in January and February together, by 14% versus 2019 and by 6% against
“the bumper year, 2018”. But other regions have been “drastically
different”, with South Asia, North Africa and Southern Africa all down
20% or more. WorldACD also points out that it is not all about Hong Kong
and Shanghai – other origin cities saw 100% or more growth, including
Nairobi, Los Angeles and Paris. Well worth a read and you can also
