How air freight is priced

Airlines charge on the higher of actual weight and volumetric weight. Light, bulky cartons cost more by air than their weight suggests.

Questions

Air freight FAQ

When should I choose air over sea?

Choose air when goods are urgent, under about 300 kg, or worth a lot per kilo, such as electronics, jewellery and samples. For anything bulky or heavy, sea is far cheaper.

Can you ship batteries and power banks by air?

Lithium batteries are dangerous goods and need special packing and labels. Many can fly as cargo with the right paperwork; tell us the battery type when you ask for a quote.

Is customs faster by air?

Usually yes. We file the Bill of Entry before the flight lands, and most air shipments are released within one to two working days.
