These factors are expected to remain in place through the peak season period. Freight rates on Asia to North America corridors have already shown significant upward momentum in recent weeks, with market analysts reporting continued upward pressure as carriers seek to restore rate levels and manage capacity constraints. Market indicators suggest further increases may be implemented as demand builds into the summer peak season.
