Oseaanvragmarkopdatering
China-Noord-Amerika
- Koersveranderinge: In late May, ocean freight rates on the China to US West Coast and East Coast lanes saw notable increases. While weekly rates saw an uptick of less than 5%, comparing month-by-month, rates to the West Coast rose by approximately 70% from their April lows, while East Coast rates climbed by nearly 50% during the same period. These increases reflect the early onset of peak season and concerns over potential disruptions later in the year.
- Markveranderinge: Carriers have adjusted schedules due to Red Sea diversions, leading to congestion and a decrease in available equipment at export hubs. This has resulted in more rolled containers and delays. Additionally, the new Federal Maritime Commission (FMC) rules on detention and demurrage charges, which came into effect on May 28, aim to improve billing practices and dispute resolutions, potentially impacting shipping practices and costs. Despite these challenges, demand has stabilized, with volumes expected to remain manageable through the summer months. If these trends continue, further rate hikes may occur in June.
China-Europa
- Rate changes: Rates on the China to North Europe and Mediterranean lanes increased by around 6% and 3%, respectively. This is primarily due to a slight uptick in European demand and the announcement of additional blank sailings by carriers. Rates are likely to remain stable, with potential increases depending on future demand and capacity adjustments.
- Markveranderinge: Despite the rate increases, the market remains cautious due to an oversupply of newly built ultra-large container vessels. The deployment of these vessels continues to pressure the market, causing rates to stabilize rather than surge. Market analysts predict that unless demand significantly improves, the upward momentum in rates might not sustain for long.

China-VS en Europa
- Koersveranderinge: Air freight rates from China to North America saw a slight decrease of about 3%, while rates to North Europe remained stable. The overall global airfreight index indicates a marginal decline, reflecting the mixed demand situation across different lanes.
- Markveranderinge: The air cargo market continues to face overcapacity, with several carriers grounding freighters.This has added pressure on rates, especially for e-commerce and general cargo. Notably, demand from Asia Pacific origins has been strong, with rates from key markets like Vietnam to Europe almost doubling year-on-year. Despite this, the overall market outlook remains cautious, with carriers focusing on improving operational efficiency amid rising costs and geopolitical tensions.
