Christmas air cargo space short as Australian online sales jump 6-8pc

A SIX to eight per cent jump in online shopping this year is causing a great Australian rush for airfreight space, reports the Australian Broadcasting Corporation.
The Australian Horticultural Exporters Association's David Minnis said Christmas was always busy, but the rise in the country's online shopping this year has made life more difficult than ever.
"As a fresh fruit exporter, we're used to having some problems around Christmas time, but for some reason this year Australians are sending lots of presents overseas," he says.
"Certainly space into Asia and then on through Europe is tight because of this movement of Christmas goods," he said.
