Why Choose Air Freight

Air shipping offers significant advantages for time-sensitive and high-value cargo.

Speed & Reliability

Air freight is the fastest shipping method available, with transit times measured in days rather than weeks, making it ideal for urgent shipments and just-in-time inventory management.

Enhanced Security

Air cargo undergoes rigorous security screening and spends less time in transit, reducing the risk of damage, theft, or loss compared to other shipping methods.

Global Reach

Air freight connects to virtually any destination worldwide, including inland locations that may be difficult to reach by sea, providing unmatched accessibility.

Lower Inventory Costs

Faster shipping times mean you can maintain lower inventory levels, reducing warehousing costs and freeing up working capital for other business needs.

Ideal for High-Value Goods

The speed and security of air freight make it the preferred option for high-value, time-sensitive, or perishable goods where the shipping cost is a small percentage of the cargo value.

Specialized Handling Capabilities

Air freight offers superior handling for temperature-sensitive, fragile, and high-value items with specialized equipment and trained personnel throughout the journey.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about our customs clearance services.

How do I track my air freight shipment?

PowerCargo provides real-time tracking through our online portal. You'll receive login credentials to monitor your shipment's progress from origin to destination. Our system provides flight information, current location, customs status, and estimated delivery times.

How does air freight pricing work?

Air freight is typically priced based on either the actual weight or the volumetric weight (dimensional weight) of your shipment, whichever is greater. Additional factors include distance, service level (standard vs. express), fuel surcharges, and any special handling requirements.

What types of goods can be shipped via air freight?

Most commercial goods can be shipped by air, including electronics, fashion items, pharmaceuticals, perishables, and industrial equipment. However, certain dangerous goods are restricted or require special handling. Our team will advise on any restrictions that may apply to your specific cargo.

Is there a weight or size limit for air freight?

While there are practical limitations based on aircraft capacity, modern cargo aircraft can accommodate surprisingly large items. Standard air freight is suitable for shipments from small parcels up to several tons. For oversized cargo, we offer specialized solutions including charter services when necessary.

How quickly can air freight deliver my cargo?

Transit times vary by route and service level. Standard air freight typically takes 2-5 days for international shipments, while express services can deliver in 1-2 days. Domestic shipments are often delivered within 24 hours. We'll provide specific transit time estimates during the booking process.
