The International Air Transport Association (IATA) reported a 3.2% year-on-year increase in global air cargo demand for January 2025, marking 18 months of growth, although the pace has slowed from 2024’s double-digit surges. Capacity also increased by 6.8%, but cargo yields fell by 9.9% from December. Regional performances varied, with Latin America leading at an 11.2% demand rise, while the Middle East saw an 8.4% decline. Economic factors like rising global industrial production and trade growth are influencing trends, and future growth will depend on adapting to changing market conditions and policies.
