Middle East Conflict Causing Delays Across Air Freight Sector
2026-03-03

Dear Valued Customer:

 

Recent events in the Middle East have forced many air cargo carriers to cancel, suspend, or divert flights away from the region. These operational changes are causing significant disruptions across the air freight sector.

 

As a result, customers should expect widespread capacity constraints due to flight cancellations, substantial increases in airfreight rates, booking challenges, and increased delays for shipments destined for the European Union and the United States. In addition, cargo congestion is growing at major international airport hubs.

 

At this time, we are strongly encouraging our air freight customers to contact their logistics advisors to discuss alternative shipping solutions and address any questions or concerns you may have regarding this situation.

 

Thank you!

 

Sincerely,

OEC Group
