Double digit air freight growth for Middle East carriers | GulfNews.com:

"Middle Eastern carriers reported the largest increase in air cargo growth in November 2013 when compared to the same month in the previous year, according to the International Air Transport Association (IATA). Exceeding the global average of 6.1 per cent the Middle Eastern carriers reported a 16.5 per cent jump in air freight, measured in freight tonne kilometres (FTK).
IATA stated that improvements in advanced economies, including Europe, are proving beneficial to the Middle Eastern carriers, who are also benefiting from “solid economic and trade growth” in the Gulf.
“The trend is likely to continue with indicators showing record high export orders in the UAE, which bodes well for continued growth in the region’s trade volumes,” IATA stated."
