CH Robinson warns of cargo capacity shortages out of Asia in late September due to quarter-end shipments, a technology export push, and upcoming holidays, especially affecting China and major nearby origins. Capacity tightening will primarily impact general cargo with rising spot rates expected mid-month, alongside ongoing Middle East conflict affecting airspace routes.

You must prepare for tighter cargo space out of Asia starting mid-September; prioritise bookings on the best flights early or face delays and higher costs. Rising rates and reduced routing options threaten your supply chain reliability during key seasonal freight spikes.
