Stronger Air Freight Market causes early capacity bottlenecks

Due to the consistently strong air freight market and expected strong business in the current fall, we expect further capacity bottlenecks.

Whereas a heavy growing peak season for shipments from Asia to Europe (and vice-versa) is expected, capacities on the transatlantic route are already being heavily utilized.
For this reason, it is recommended that air freight shipments be booked as soon as possible, so that they can be dispatched as planned.

The experts at the DACHSER air freight organization have been working on various measures for the current fall peak season (for example, having DACHSER charter its own flights, shifting goods flows to smaller airports, and increasing standing capacities at strategic airline partners). These preparations make it possible for DACHSER to continue to fulfill our customers’ quality demands to their complete satisfaction, despite the expected growth.

Your local DACHSER team will be pleased to accept your shipment orders and can support you in planning your air freight shipments.
