My understanding is the reason cargo is making some money right now is because flights are so scaled back, especially internationally. The rubber dog poo still has to move, and since qantas is not flying to the us there is a drastically reduced cargo lift available to Australia. Ual is stepping in to take advantage of that. Evaair has far fewer flights to tpe, ual is stepping in to take advantage of that, and can charge higher rates. Once flights start coming back the lift will be more available and rates will go back down.
