Air Freight
General consignments are sent via air freight for a variety of reasons:
Size: Where the shipment is too large to go by courier
Nature of cargo: Some goods are considered as ‘dangerous cargo’ and must therefore travel as air freight
Packing requirements: Some consignments (eg, antiques, fragile items) require specialist packing
Temperature: Some consignments (eg perishables, medication, live cargo) require to be stored at certain temperatures
Origin or destination point: Some do not offer courier flight facilities
Urgency: Less urgent shipments can go by air freight at lower cost than being sent by courier.
If you are a small or medium-sized freight forwarder or courier company, you may handle occasional or even regular importations. But if it’s not your specialised area, clearing customs is probably taking up many unnecessary hours of your time.
Similarly, if you’re a business importing raw materials, components or goods, you may be wasting valuable hours on a daily or weekly basis, processing customs paperwork and liaising with airlines.
