According to data for January released by the International Air Transport Association (IATA) global air cargo total demand, measured in cargo tonne-kilometers (CTK), rose by 3.2% compared to January 2024 levels (3.6% for international operations) for an 18th consecutive month of growth.<\/p>\n
Capacity, measured in available cargo tonne-kilometers (ACTK), increased by 6.8% compared to January 2024 (7.3% for international operations).<\/p>\n
“January marked 18 consecutive months of growth for air cargo, but the month’s 3.2% year-on-year growth is a moderation from double-digit peaks in 2024. Similarly, yields, while still above January 2024 levels, saw a 9.9% decline from December as cargo load factors also declined by an average of 1.5 percentage points. While external factors such as trade growth, declining fuel costs and expanding e-commerce remain positive for air cargo, it is important to closely watch the evolution of market conditions at this time. In particular, the wild card is the potential for tariff-driven trade policies from the US Trump Administration. Fortunately, the air cargo industry is well practiced at dealing with shifts in the operating environment,” said IATA’s Director General, WIllie Walsh.<\/p>\n
Asia-Pacific airlines saw 7.5% year-on-year demand growth for air cargo in January and North American carriers saw 5.3% year-on-year demand growth.<\/p>\n
European carriers saw 1.3% year-on-year demand growth for air cargo in January and Middle Eastern carriers saw 8.4% year-on-year demand decrease.<\/p>\n
Latin American carriers saw an 11.2% year-on-year increase in demand growth for air cargo in January, the strongest growth among the regions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
