Air Freight - Frequently Asked Questions
How much does air freight cost and what factors affect air freight pricing?
Air freight cost varies depending on shipment weight or chargeable weight, dimensions, origin and destination, service speed (e.g. express or standard), incoterms, fuel and security surcharges and any required customs clearance or handling. Requesting a tailored air freight quote with full shipment details is the fastest way to get an accurate price.
What is the difference between door-to-door and airport-to-airport air freight?
Door-to-door air freight includes collection from your premises and final delivery to the consignee’s address. Airport-to-airport air freight covers only carriage between airports, you’ll need to arrange local collection/delivery and customs at either end. Door-to-door is more convenient but usually higher in total cost.
How should I prepare and package goods for air freight shipments?
For air freight, goods need to be packed securely. Clearly label each piece, provide an accurate packing list, commercial invoice and declare any dangerous goods. Proper packaging reduces handling damage and can avoid delays at airlines or during customs inspections.
How long does air freight take for import and export shipments?
Air freight transit time depends on the route and service selected. Typical international air freight moves from same‑day/special service to 1–7 days for standard consolidated services. You can ask us here for estimated door-to-door transit times for your specific origin and destination.
What documents are required for air freight customs clearance?
Common documents include the airway bill, commercial invoice, packing list, export/import licences (if applicable), certificates of origin and any dangerous goods declarations. Having accurate documentation ready speeds customs clearance and avoids additional fees.
We provide a highly efficient and bespoke service to clients from all industries.
