Dear valued Customer,
The security situation in the Middle East, including the Strait of Hormuz, remains unpredictable and subject to rapid change. At present, there are no new operational impacts to report. However, geopolitical developments continue to be closely monitored, as short-notice disruptions, routing changes or capacity constraints cannot be ruled out.
In this environment, proactive planning and flexibility remain key. We are in continuous contact with carriers and partners and will communicate immediately should the situation change or affect your supply chains.
Air Freight Solutions into the Middle East continue to be a reliable and effective alternative when Sea Freight is constrained by commodity restrictions, port closures or limited sailing options. We currently maintain access to Air Freight capacity into the Middle East (excluding Iran) from all major origins, supporting both bellyhold and main-deck cargo.
In addition to general cargo, we are able to handle Dangerous Goods and oversized shipments*. Given the current market environment, with ongoing sailing delays and disruptions, we see an increasing demand for shifting cargo from sea to air. We are experts in structured sea-to-air conversion programs, providing tailored and cost-efficient uplift scenarios designed around your specific requirements. We maintain close coordination with our partner airlines to monitor your cargo and minimize disruptions in a challenging environment. Due to the evolving geopolitical situation, schedules and routings may be subject to short-notice changes and extended transit times. When transit time is critical, we also offer partial and full charter options to ensure the fastest possible delivery.
For the latest updates, guidance and service options related to the situation in the Middle East, please visit our dedicated Info Hub. It is updated regularly to help you plan ahead and stay informed as conditions evolve. We recommend early planning and booking. Your local Leschaco contacts are ready to answer your questions and support you in finding the solution that best fits your needs.
