Agreed, however this all started long before CNY and is continuing long after.
Speaking as someone working in the forwarding industry, I repeat what I have said before. Importers and Exporters are trying harder to make sure they can ship by sea as it is cheaper and with the pressure on the bottom line they need to avoid the higher costs of flying freight.
Indeed. You only have to look at the overall decline in flown freight at MAN over the last few years
