Global Container Prices Surge Again, Pressuring Both Asia–Europe and Transpacific Routes
- Drewry’s World Container Index rose 6% week on week to $2,712 per 40-foot container, extending the upward trend seen since May.
- More significant increases were recorded on the Shanghai–Rotterdam and Shanghai–Genoa routes, with space tightening on Asia–Europe services; US-bound routes also continued to strengthen due to blank sailings and expectations of surcharges.
- Carriers are raising June FAK rates and peak season surcharges. Together with geopolitical risks in the Middle East and rising fuel costs, short-term freight rates may remain firm.
