Rising prices do not singularly mean price gouging. As others have mentioned, the global freight market is a relatively-efficient one. A single country regulating prices would only ensure that country reduces its own access.

If a global consortium capped cargo rates, the quantity supplied would diminish. For example, it's more expensive to run cargo on passenger planes than on dedicated cargo planes. If you cap prices pre-crisis, those passenger planes would never run cargo profitably. So total capacity would be reduced.

Freight rates rising are doing what they're supposed to. They're increasing the quantity supplied while rationing availability to the most-urgent users.

If it's shameful to move more freight in a crisis than less, let them be shameful. This sort of armchair moralizing, without the consideration of unintended consequences of one's proposals, if enacted into policy, can cost lives.

Price gouging is a specific form of market failure. This isn't that market failure.

You may not like prices going up. That's fine. But that doesn't make it price gouging. Providers aren't making excess profits, they're commandeering higher-priced supply to meet unprecedented demand.

If you insist on the price remaining steady even when the market conditions have changed radically you are choosing shortages in order to satisfy your belief that the price shouldn't change.
