Why Choose Airfreight?

Airfreight is an ideal solution when time is of the essence or for smaller, high-value items that need secure, expedited transport. It offers:

• Speed: The fastest way to ship internationally, ideal for urgent deliveries.
• Security: Airfreight typically involves fewer handling points than sea freight, reducing the risk of damage or loss.
• Reliability: Scheduled flights ensure predictable delivery times.

How Are Airfreight Rates Calculated?

When it comes to overseas airfreight rates, they are determined by either the actual weight or the dimensional (volumetric) weight of your cargo. Here’s how it’s calculated:

1. Actual Weight: This is the total weight of your shipment.

2. Dimensional Weight: Airlines calculate dimensional weight based on the space your cargo occupies in relation to its actual weight. The standard formula is:

   Volume=Length (cm)×Width (cm)×Height (cm)6000\text{Volume} = \frac{\text{Length (cm)} \times \text{Width (cm)} \times \text{Height (cm)}}{6000}Volume=6000Length (cm)×Width (cm)×Height (cm)​

Whichever is higher—actual or dimensional weight—will be used to calculate your airfreight shipping rates.
