Air freight is the shipment of goods via an air carrier, for the most part this is utilised internationally. It is one of the most valuable methods of shipping when goods need to be moved across the world, and in the fastest way possible. These kinds of shipments travel via the same gateways as commercial or passenger planes do.
The most attractive aspect of using Air Freight shipments is that they can be moved across the globe much faster than other options such as rail or sea. It is therefore the preferred method of shipping time sensitive orders and shipments which is especially helpful for small to medium sized companies that wish to expand into international markets. Air Freight also offers a high level of security, keeping shipments safe and secure and offering peace of mind to the sender and recipient.
In most cases, shipments by air will be organised and managed by experienced freight forwarding companies. These experts in shipping will be able to ensure you use the right type of shipping for the goods you are sending or receiving and will enable a smoother and more efficient shipping experience for you, your customers and even suppliers.
