Questions & answers
Frequently asked questions about this service
What determines the air-freight price?
Factors include route, capacity, type of goods, actual weight and chargeable volumetric weight. Collection, onward delivery and agreed additional services are included in the overall calculation.
Is flight time the same as total delivery time?
No. Collection, acceptance deadlines, clearance and delivery also take time. The planned door-to-door transit time is therefore the relevant measure.
Can I book air freight in the road-transport calculator?
Air freight requires an individual enquiry. Send us your package details and preferred date; we assess the route and service scope personally.
