CAAS SPRING Cover 2026

Spring 2026

In the turbulence and uncertainty of the past 12 months, some new patterns have emerged, while certain old trends, tendencies and truths have been further highlighted, underlined and reinforced – or in some cases, left behind.
Many of these are illustrated in the accounts of air cargo industry experts and senior stakeholders within the Outlook 2026 Report within this magazine (pages 4-49). Senior industry leaders from freight forwarding companies, carriers, airports, cargo handlers, technology specialists, associations, and other organisations describe their recent experiences and how they have responded to key changing market conditions and circumstances, and new trends and patterns. Emerging themes include the ever-increasing importance of resilience, responsiveness, visibility, and good data.
Ai is mentioned frequently, and you will have your own experiences with this. New use cases within air cargo will continue to emerge this year, and air cargo will continue to play a key role in transporting the semiconductors and other technologies that support its development – and the wider supply chains of this and other verticals – as cargo owners and their logistics partners navigate complex and fast-changing tariff, trade, and competitive dynamics.
