Why Choose Air Freight Shipping Services Over Other Methods?

When deciding on a cargo transportation method, it is crucial to consider how drayage, sea, or air freight affects delivery time, assurance, and cost. Customers expect their goods to arrive on time, without damage, and reasonably priced in today's business world.

Speed of Transportation


Air freight offers swift and stable cargo transport, ideal for long-distance shipments. Unlike drayage or ocean shipping, it ensures reliability, especially for perishable items, reaching customers within hours.

Network of Destinations


Planes, unlike sea freight, can reach virtually every destination on the planet without relying on a shoreline or road network. They can access troublesome delivery sites inaccessible to other means of transportation by flying over congested transit hubs.

Cost-effective Transportation


Air cargo shipping, though pricier, reduces insurance costs due to its speed and reliability. Offering lower insurance premiums can be a competitive advantage for serving important clients.

Benefit from Airport Security Measures


Using air freight is a safe choice if you are concerned about your cargo being damaged or stolen. This level of security is due to the low handling required for air freight and the careful monitoring and upkeep of airport safety and security.

Reduced Packaging


Air freight frequently needs less packaging than other modes of transportation to reduce the weight limit, despite being an exceptionally safe method of delivering even fragile items. 

Reduced Storage Requirements


There is less need for warehousing due to the efficiency of air freight transportation. Customs authorities can inspect and approve products for transit more quickly than other delivery methods thanks to their efficient clearance processes.

Highly Reliable Service


Due to the rigorous timelines set by airport rules, air freight shipments can provide absolute reliability. Air freight can help you stay on schedule even if you frequently move large quantities of products.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Air freight shipping transit time is impacted by distance, shipping mode, route, season, and other factors. The time a shipment arrives by air, including transcontinental flights, can range from several hours to several days. Your shipment may be delayed further due to weather conditions, holidays, customs regulations, or mechanical issues with carriers beyond our control, causing it to arrive later than expected. TGL monitors these changes constantly to ensure that goods arrive on time and with proper freight documentation. Contact us, and we'll walk you through the best options for getting your cargo to its destination in the most efficient way possible.

TGL offers optional all-risk cargo insurance that ensures your goods are protected from origin to destination. 

TGL handles and transports hazardous materials, such as chemicals and flammables, and products containing lithium batteries. Don't hesitate to contact our solution specialists if you are unsure whether your shipment is classified as dangerous. They'll answer all your dangerous goods questions and walk you through the shipping process.

Air freight cargo has standard dimensions of 300cm in length, 240cm in width, and 160cm in height. Any longer or wider loads would be considered oversized and may necessitate specialised freight services such as an air charter.

The carrying capacity of every aircraft is ultimately limited by space or weight. If you load a vessel with heavy cargo, you may reach its weight limit before filling all available space. If you load a vessel with light cargo, you may fill all available space before hitting the weight limit.

When calculating the cost of moving your shipment, the carrier will consider your cargo's weight and volume by converting the volume into a "weight equivalent," also known as volumetric weight (or sometimes dimensional weight). The carrier will then charge per kilogram for whichever is greater: the actual weight (also known as gross weight) or the volumetric weight.

Actual weight is the number you provide us when you submit your initial quote request. 

Chargeable weight is the number on your invoice; it's the amount the carrier charged to transport your cargo. The chargeable weight is whichever of the following is more significant:

The gross weight (including the product, packaging, and pallet), or

The volumetric weight
