Airspace, Ports, Seasons — and the Cost of Standing Still

Supply chains don’t break loudly.
They strain quietly—until people do.

In Episode 41 of Holding the Line, we examine how global logistics is being reshaped by forces that don’t always make headlines: rerouted airspace, tightening port dynamics, and peak seasons that no longer arrive neatly on a calendar.

Air cargo capacity hasn’t collapsed—but it is strained. Ports aren’t in chaos—but they are recalibrating under tariff pressure and trade uncertainty. And peak season? It’s no longer a moment in time—it’s a condition.

This episode explores what happens when borders reshape space, policies alter demand, and planners are left absorbing the pressure long before it shows up in KPIs. From flight paths to berth windows, from trade decisions to human schedules, the strain moves downstream—quietly, relentlessly.

Because while systems adapt, people absorb.

And that pressure deserves to be seen.

🎧 Listen in for a grounded look at where logistics pressure is building—and who is carrying it.
