USTR port fee plan could double freight rates for US containerised exports, erasing margins
US agricultural exporters would suffer port fee fallout on top of retaliatory tariffs, which have already been imposed by China, with other countries likely to follow suit next month in response to Trump’s reciprocal tariffs
No, because then Airbus will just significantly increase its prices when selling to China. You can't play that game with Boeing. All China can do is slow down its purchases of Boeing planes, but that's about it.China should banned all Boeing made planes or put a fee for entering China sovereign air space.
Lets see how the game goes on...
not true at all. This simply would affect the decision making of all the airlines that want to fly into China, especially the LCCs in southeast Asia.No, because then Airbus will just significantly increase its prices when selling to China.

China is already not really buy Boeing aircraft, because domestic airlines can buy COMAC aircraft or get Airbus aircraft from lessors and such.
In fact, Imposing additional landing fee on Boeing aircraft would have quite the chilling effect.
I don't see how many Boeing plane China bought in 2025 has anything to do with it. It went several years without taking any MAX deliveries. China absolutely does not have to buy Boeing planes.I mean, all you had to do was google "how many Boeing planes is China buying in 2025?"
COMAC has a long way to go before it can clear enough backlog for China to remove Boeing from its purchasing plans. Until then China will absolutely still be buying Boeing planes.
It's a testament to how little Americans know about shipbuilding to think any ship operator will make purchasing decisions that are 3-5 years ahead of delivery, i.e. after Trump's term ends, on anything Trump does, nevermind how little US actually make up in global trade volume.Port fees on Chinese ships could put some US exporters ‘out of business'
Didn't Biden double down on most "anti-China" legislations?It's a testament to how little Americans know about shipbuilding to think any ship operator will make purchasing decisions that are 3-5 years ahead of delivery, i.e. after Trump's term ends, on anything Trump does, nevermind how little US actually make up in global trade volume.
