Even after the recent global events, and currently, air freight remains immensely popular among clients due to its numerous outstanding advantages. Let’s explore them together.
International air cargo delivery refers to the transportation and shipment of goods via an airline, which can be chartered or commercial.
Such shipments travel from commercial and passenger airport gates to virtually any location aircraft can fly and land.
This method has been widely adopted as one of the central delivery options for import and export since the early 20th century.
Global importers and exporters use international air freight when they need goods to reach a destination quickly and reliably.
While 80% of all goods are shipped by sea, air freight connects the world much faster, reducing shipping time between, for example, China and the United States from 20–30 days by ocean to just three days by international air freight.
Its role becomes paramount when transporting perishable goods, medical supplies, or urgent materials required for major disaster relief.
The rapid response capability of air freight gives it a distinct advantage and superiority over other shipping methods (land and sea).
The most significant feature of international air freight is speed.
It is ideal for shipping time-sensitive goods, perishable items, long-distance transport of critical materials, or commercial mail that cannot endure delays.
It remarkably outperforms sea and land shipping.
