Questions we get

How long does air freight take?

For ordinary cargo from Europe, three to five days door to door including clearing is typical. The Far East runs a little longer. We confirm the schedule when we quote.

How is air freight priced?

Airlines charge on actual or volumetric weight, whichever is higher. We work out the chargeable weight before we quote so there is no correction later.
