What Are Airport Freight Services?

Airport freight services help you ship your products using a variety of air carriers. The process starts by contacting a local carrier to ship your freight by air.

The local carrier will pick up your shipment and deliver it to the airport of your choice. The load will then travel by air to its destination, with pickup and delivery arranged by the local carrier.

Since the air carrier and delivery service at the destination are different from the local carrier, your local contact will provide the logistics support to ship your products

Air Freight Shipping Advantages

When considering how your products will be shipped, air freight shipping has several advantages.

Reduced Chance of Damage: Your products will likely be shipped on the same plane to their destination. That means less risk of damage since air shipping has a smoother ride for your freight.
Increased Security: Airports have a higher level of security than any other form of shipping, so you can be assured that your freight is secure.
Better Tracking: Choosing to ship by air includes better tracking since the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulates delivery schedules using GPS-based Monitoring Units (GMU). Using GMUs, the exact arrival time of your shipment is tracked.
