It’s all very well sending out these letters/statements but bring them into effect is going to be a different story.
Do you think the Global Freight Forwarder are going to approached their customers with a 20-30% rate increase on airfreight? Cause they are sure not going to absorb it!
Simple fact is the Airlines need the Forwarder not the other way round. If you as a carrier want the business this is what you’ll charge us (the forwarder) to get it.
The large Forwarders will apply a little pressure in the right way to ensure is 20-30% doesn’t happen to them.
