After Heathrow and Amsterdam Schiphol Airport, Frankfurt Airport (FRA) became the latest European cargo hub to be hit by a staff crunch and is staring at ‘severely limited’ ground handling capabilities.
This had led to both passenger and freighter airlines taking to canceling and rescheduling of flights to Frankfurt Airport (FRA). Several airlines operating freighters to and from Frankfurt have been asked to seek passage through alternative airports owing to this situation by the airport.
With the official holiday season starting, the situation for air cargo traffic is especially dire on the weekends. Friday and Saturday witness higher volumes of cargo that needs to be handled. Industry experts aver that there could be delays of 2–4 days for Frankfurt-bound volumes due to the situation.
