Air freight

For shipments where time is critical. We arrange air freight for import and export – from pickup at the shipper through customs clearance to delivery at your door.

We arrange air freight together with airlines and partners in the countries of origin. You have one contact, we handle capacity booking, the air waybill (AWB), customs formalities and onward road transport.

Air freight pays off especially for higher-value goods, urgent deliveries and smaller volumes for which sea freight would take too long.

What we arrange for you

  • Consolidated shipments

    Your cargo flies together with other goods – better rates for smaller volumes.

  • Direct and express flights

    When the deadline is critical, we choose the fastest available connection.

  • Charter on request

    For oversized or extremely urgent cargo that doesn't fit scheduled flights.

  • Door to door

    Pickup at the supplier, flight, customs clearance and delivery to you.

  • Sensitive and dangerous goods

    Batteries, chemicals or temperature-controlled goods after individual assessment under the regulations.

  • Customs clearance

    Import and export customs procedures and complete documentation.

When it makes sense

  • Delivery time matters more than the cost of transport.
  • You ship higher-value goods, electronics or spare parts.
  • The volume is small and waiting for a ship would delay production or sales.
  • You need to restock quickly before a larger sea shipment arrives.

Frequently asked questions

How is the air freight price calculated?
Airlines charge the higher of two values – actual weight or volumetric weight. In air cargo, volumetric weight is usually length × width × height in cm divided by 6,000 (1 m³ = 167 kg). For bulky but light goods the dimensions decide.
How long does air freight take?
The flight itself often takes one to a few days. The total time depends on pickup, flight frequency from the airport, transfers and customs clearance. You will get an exact estimate in our quote.
What do you need for a quote?
Pickup and delivery location, description of goods, number of pieces, weight and dimensions of each piece, the Incoterms delivery term and the required date. For dangerous goods also the safety data sheet (SDS).
Can you ship goods with lithium batteries?
Lithium batteries and other dangerous goods are subject to IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations. Send us the safety data sheet and packaging type – we will assess whether and under which conditions transport is possible.
