AIRFREIGHT and wider supply chain disruption is set to continue in shanghai as the city remains under lockdown, reports London's Air Cargo News.
Shanghai started a two-phase lockdown on March 28. Restrictions were due to end on April 5, but the city's government has extended the lockdown, now covering the whole city.
Dimerco's air- ocean freight market forecast, looking specifically at Asia-Intra Asia, found congestion is rising at Shanghai Pudong International Airport (PVG) with a backlog of cargo, rising rates and pressure on road transport.
The logistics company said: 'resources of road transportation are still critical in Shanghai as well as in Jiangsu Province. It causes the delay on pick up in some areas and the price is at highest level'.
It said space was tight across air hubs in Greater China too, while backlogs are also evident in Korea and Singapore.
Rates to the US and Europe are also rising, it added.
