Growth in air cargo demand to decelerate in 2025, IATA says

Air cargo volume growth will be halved in 2025, but it will still be a good year for carriers behind continued ocean shipping delays, tight freighter capacity and strength in cross-border e-commerce, the International Air Transport Association forecast.
