The ongoing war between the United States, Israel, and Iran is causing significant disruptions to air cargo operations in the Middle East, a key trade route connecting Asia and Europe.
Several major airlines, including FedEx, UPS, Qatar Airways, and Emirates SkyCargo, have suspended or rerouted flights due to the conflict.
The conflict is expected to lead to air freight rate increases, particularly on the Asia-Europe route, as airlines face longer flight paths and reduced cargo capacity.
