Airport-to-Airport Air Freight

If you or your consignee already handle trucking and clearance, airport-to-airport service gives you exactly what you need: space, an air waybill and a well-coordinated flight.

Overview

What airport-to-airport air freight gives you

With airport-to-airport service, our responsibility runs from cargo acceptance at the origin airport to arrival at the destination airport. You deliver the cargo to the agreed terminal or warehouse; we book the space, issue the air waybill, lodge the shipment with the airline and keep you informed until it is ready for collection at destination.

It is a straightforward option for experienced importers, freight agents and businesses with their own customs brokers.

Well suited to

  • Freight agents and forwarders
  • Importers with their own customs broker
  • Shippers with in-house transport
  • Regular lanes with established destination partners

Planning notes

Know who handles clearance

Export and import clearance sit with the shipper and consignee unless agreed otherwise. We can add either service if needed.

Destination storage charges

Airport warehouses charge storage after a short free period, so prompt collection keeps costs down.

Questions about this service

Can I upgrade to door-to-door later?

Yes. Collection, export clearance, import clearance coordination and final delivery can be added to any airport-to-airport booking.
