Air freight involves moving cargo from Point A to Point B via aircraft. Using air freight, cargo is transported quickly across the world, however whilst it may seem simple, the process can get quite complicated.

You need to think about whether air freight is right for you, understand all what’s involved, have the right documentation so your shipment isn’t delayed, and engage a professional freight forwarder to ensure your transaction flows smoothly.

Once you’ve decided that air freight is right for you, you need to talk and negotiate with your overseas suppliers to ensure they can comply with air transport requirements.

Air freight is a two-way transaction, so you’ll need to get your supplier onboard if air freight is your transport of choice.
