Our Services Include Various Types of Air Freight Forwarding Services & Transport

Air freight forwarding often involve the use of commercial or passenger planes. If you’re moving lighter cargo, these planes are often your best option.

As a SterlingFreight client, you will also have the option of utilising air charters as a form of air freight shipping.

Of all air freight services, this is the fastest and most direct option. There are no layovers or any outside interference, but it’s also the priciest service.

Why Use Air Freight Services

Do you need to work out the logistics of international air freight shipping for your business?

Sea freight might have been your first choice. While there are many advantages of sea freight, air freight transport has some undeniable benefits you should consider.

+ Speed

This might be the top-selling point of air freight forwarding. Unless we’re dealing with extreme weather, air shipping is faster than any other method of cargo transport. Even if it’s deferred air freight shipping, it’s still the quickest option available.

+ Accuracy

One of the significant downsides of sea freight is the frequent delays and busy seaports. If you want to avoid these issues, we recommend air freight as a solution.

Aircraft in charge of moving cargo is accurately scheduled. And there’s typically no stopping for refuelling. Furthermore, we make it super easy to track your shipment with air freight.

+ Safety

Do you worry about your cargo falling overboard into the ocean?

That’s not a concern with air freight forwarding. When it comes to the safety and security of your shipment, air shipping provides better services.

The cargo is much more heavily scrutinised and is much better protected from even the most minor of damages.

+ Return on Investment

Air freight is initially more expensive than any other type of freight. However, it’s still the most cost-effective solution in the long run.

With all other freight shipping forms, your business might lose money on downtime and subsequently halted production.

Overall, air freight forwarding requires much less packaging and less time in storage. We’ll make sure that’s the case with your cargo.
