Recent data from Xeneta reveals that airfreight services quickly bounced back just nine days after the significant CrowdStrike Windows outage on July 19, which led to thousands of flight cancellations. This recovery was bolstered by rising cargo load factors and increased passenger flights during the summer. July also marked a notable rise in air cargo demand, with a year-on-year spot rate increase of 13%, reflecting strong e-commerce needs and supply chain pressures caused by disruptions in ocean freight. However, concerns remain about capacity management ahead of the busy season.
