In October 2025, air freight capacity is strained due to peak-season demand and disruptions from typhoons, rail delays, and trade policy changes, according to Dimerco Express Group. Southeast Asian exports, particularly in semiconductors and AI products, are driving demand, while factory closures in China limit shipments. Companies are advised to diversify logistics strategies to cope with potential shortages and rising rates. Regions like Taiwan and Southeast Asia experience tight markets, while North America and Europe face their own capacity constraints. Overall, early planning is essential to manage the ongoing challenges.
