Frequently Asked Questions: Air Freight Operations
How are air cargo rates and chargeable weight calculated?
Air cargo is billed on actual or volumetric weight (IATA 1:167 ratio), whichever is higher. Quotes transparently outline base rates, Fuel Surcharges (FSC), and Security Surcharges (SSC).
Can you manage customs clearance at global airport terminals?
Yes. We handle pre-arrival filings and duty clearance at global origin and destination hubs, helping you avoid costly terminal storage and demurrage.
How do you handle sudden ocean-to-air conversions?
During disruptions, we intercept delayed cargo, repack it for air transport, and source freighter capacity fast to recover your timeline.
What security standards apply to international air freight?
Air cargo moves under IATA and national aviation security rules: every shipment must pass mandatory screening (X-ray, ETD) before flight loading. We prepare your cargo and documents to meet those requirements.
