Are you looking for a reliable carrier for your air freight? If so, our specialist Jacob can handle the entire process, from the preparation of all documentation and paperwork to the delivery of your freight to the correct address.
When to choose air freight?
Choosing air freight depends on your shipping priorities. It’s ideal for:
- Urgent shipments that require quick delivery.
- Small cargo where speed outweighs cost.
- Businesses needing express delivery across vast distances.
For example, shipping goods by air cargo to China takes only a few days, compared to the 30-45 days required for ocean freight. While air freight logistics may involve higher costs, it offers unmatched speed and efficiency for critical deliveries.
What Are the Costs of Air Freight?
Estimating the cost of air freight shipping depends on several factors:
- Weight and volume: Airlines charge based on both metrics.
- Distance: Shorter routes are generally cheaper.
- Type of cargo: Goods requiring special packaging or handling can increase costs.
Dimensions and Packing for Air Freight
Adhering to IATA guidelines is crucial for air freight logistics. Standard dimensions for air cargo are typically 400 cm (length) x 300 cm (width) x 254 cm (height), but this can vary by carrier. At Portex, we assist with proper packing, labeling, and dimension management to ensure compliance and smooth transit. Let us help you prepare your cargo transportation for a hassle-free experience.
