Forwarder Geodis has signed a partnership with Malaysia’s Air Asia X and introduced new AirDirect network routes connecting Hong Kong, Chennai, Sydney and Shanghai and able to carry an additional 320 tons of cargo every week.
The International Air Transport Association (IATA) released data for global air freight markets showing that full-year demand for air cargo increased by 6.9 per cent in 2021, compared to 2019 (pre-covid levels) and 18.7 per cent compared to 2020 following a strong performance in December 2021. This was the second biggest improvement in year-on-year demand since IATA started to monitor cargo performance in 1990 (behind 2010’s 20.6 per cent gain), outpacing the 9.8 per cent rise in global goods trade by 8.9 percentage points.
In order to meet its target of at least 25 per cent of women in management positions by 2023, Geodis is introducing a 'parity' indicator that will be reflected in the bonus paid top managers.
Logistics firm cargo-partner is adding airfreight charter capacity from Europe to the US by offering a weekly 'part load' service from Vienna to Chicago O’Hare on top of its existing connections.
Indian aviation firm Modair has launched Modair Express, an air logistics company that offers same-day cargo delivery using small aircraft on flights between large Indian cities and less accessible areas.
