Schiphol Cargo announces an 8% rise in 2024 driven by a focus on e-commerce.

In 2024, Schiphol Cargo recorded total air cargo tonnage of 1.5 million tonnes, marking an 8.2% increase from 2023. Key freight categories included electronics, perishables, and e-commerce goods, with growth attributed to rising e-commerce and restrictions in ocean shipping. The freighter-to-belly ratio shifted to 57:43, reflecting increased belly freight due to a rise in passenger flights. Inbound tonnage rose by 7.8%, while outbound tonnage increased by 8.8%, driven by demand from various regions, though Latin America experienced a decline.
