How it works
Air freight — common questions
When should a business use air freight?
When transit time, cargo value, or supply risk outweighs the higher cost per kilo — urgent replenishment, production-critical parts, perishables, high-value goods, or launch deadlines. For less urgent cargo, ocean or a sea-air combination may fit better; we'll advise per shipment.
How is air freight priced?
Airlines charge on the greater of actual weight and volumetric weight, plus route-dependent surcharges. Rates change with capacity and season, so quotations are shipment-specific.
When does a charter make sense?
When cargo is too large for scheduled services, the timeline can't tolerate connections, or a whole aircraft is more economical than splitting a large urgent shipment. We assess feasibility and cost before recommending it.
What information do you need to quote?
Origin and destination, commodity, number of packages, weight and dimensions, ready date, and required delivery date. Special handling needs — temperature, dangerous goods classification, or high value — should be flagged up front.
