Four shocks stalled India’s 2025 air‑travel recovery India entered 2025 with clear travel momentum, but that early recovery was quickly interrupted by a cluster of four shocks that undercut demand, capacity and operations. Carriers and airports are now navigating near‑term disruption while reassessing network and capacity plans for the year.

Air cargo market 2025: A year of front‑loading, fragmentation, and forced agility 2025 was not a bad year for air cargo, but it was hard. Compressed planning windows, broken traffic patterns and front‑loading forced carriers, integrators and lessors to reallocate capacity faster, use dynamic pricing and rely on ad hoc solutions — rewarding operators that could outpace rivals on operational agility and rapid decision‑making.
