The Latam Airlines Group reported a Q1/2014 operating income of USD 146.7 million, excluding non-recurring costs related to fleet restructuring.

The International Air Transport Association (Iata) released data showing airfreight markets in March were up by 5.9% compared to a year ago and capacity grew by 3.4%. While this marks a significant improvement in volumes compared to March 2013, much of the growth took place in the final quarter of 2013 (over and above the usual year-end volume growth). Since the beginning of the year, air cargo volumes have been basically flat. This plateau in volumes is consistent with the recent pause in improvements to business confidence and world trade.

"From air to sea: study reveals more about modal shift" (24/03/2014)

Source: ITJ (International Transport Journal). Read news here

 

The modal shift to ocean freight has cost the air cargo sector almost 2 percentage points of annual growth since 2000, and is set to continue at a moderate pace, according to research by the Seabury Group and the International Air Transport Association (Iata). The study by the advisory services firm highlighted that airfreight's share of total global containerised or unitised cargo transported declined from 3.1% in 2000 to 1.7% in 2013. Around one third of this market share loss is due to the modal shift – in which a product that used to be shipped by air is now being conveyed by sea or surface transport. Commodity mix factors and value effects were the other main causes, the study identified.
