Air freight - Take flight over everything

The ever-expanding global markets require modern and international freight services. Today, companies and businesses have a variety of options to choose between different freight services. Thanks to these improvements, air freight becomes an industry.

The first use of air freight is back to 1910 from Dayton to Columbus that a store in Ohio send a silk cloud.

Some believe that World War II was an air battle of nations so that air freight shipping showed its potential to carry bombs and weapons of war. At that time, the technology used to build aircraft was significantly improved. Also, the aircraft engines became more powerful so that they could carry more weight and fly faster and farther.

Why TopShipping is the best?

What is important for companies and businesses is to find the fastest and the cheapest way to transport goods. Air freight is usually done in the following three ways, which are provided by most freight companies. The industry has different flight options to suit every need and situation such as:

A) Next flight out

As soon as a flight becomes available, we will send your product.

This method is very fast but expensive. It is also a bite risky because they will confirm the capacity needed for products at the very last moment. For using this, you need to use the assistance of resources and experts in freight shipping companies who can locate the needed capacity and ensure that your timelines are met.

B) Consolidated shipping

In this method, your good will travel along with other clients’ goods. In other words, other people can use the same flight to carry their cargo. Due to the fact that your good is shipped with countless others goods, it can be cost effective.

This method is not suitable for companies that don’t work with many customers because they may not be able to provide regular freight services by using consolidated air freight. It can lead to delays in deliveries.

C) Deferred

In this type of air freight shipping, companies postponed the freight of lower priority cases until they find any available space on the aircraft. With this service, usually, freight forwarders defer their freight to third or fourth business days to find the needed space. This way is slower and cheaper than the two other services. However, it is good to mention that this type of shipment usually operates on a defined and regular schedule.

Since we work with companies that operate in different fields, we must consider the type of freight forwarding, product, date of delivery and the destination country. Our experts can make the best choice for you in terms of shipping conditions, available routes, costs and timetables, by using their experience in this field, so that your cargo can be transported in the best possible conditions.

Weight limit

Due to the limited space of aircraft compared to ships, this method has a weight limit.

Environment Unfriendly

It has a greater negative impact on the environment than other methods. Because old aircraft are used for air transportation and cargo, which are more polluting than new models.

Relatively Expensive

Air freight service is more expensive method than other options. Sometimes, for the same distance, up to 10 times more expensive than sea freight.

Weather Dependant

Bad weather cancels or delays the flight. This means a delay in cargo delivery.

Get a Quote Air Freight Rates

Note that the air freight rate is calculated based on the weight and volume. Here you need to first measure the volumetric weight and the gross weight of the product. To calculate the gross weight, place the product on the scales. We also use the following formula for volumetric weight: (Length×weight×high) Or 167

Then the biggest number is your chargeable weight for freight rate. But that’s not the end of the story. There are many other factors that affect your costs such as:

Cargo insurance
Packaging
Fuel surcharges
Distance
Freight class
Customs duties and taxes
Pickup and delivery
