‘Reminds me of Covid’: AI equipment chokes Taiwan’s air cargo gateway

Uncollected imports are clogging cargo warehouses at Taiwan Taoyuan Airport, tying up dollies and slowing aircraft unloading as equipment arrives to support the island’s AI and semiconductor industries, according to local forwarders.

Seko Logistics has reported handling pressure affecting China Airlines, EVA Air, and Starlux, alongside selected China Airlines flight cancellations, including US-bound freighter services.

“There is a shortage of dollies at the airport, so cargo cannot be unloaded from aircraft and towed to the ground handlers for breakdown, etc.”

The source said the equipment shortage stemmed from freight accumulating in warehouses because consignees had yet to collect it.
