Air Freight from the UAE: When It Pays Off and How to Arrange It
When speed matters, air freight is the optimal choice. Here is when air delivery of cargo from the UAE pays off and how to arrange it.
When to choose air delivery
Air freight suits urgent, valuable and compact cargo where speed matters. For large and heavy batches sea freight is often more cost-effective — a manager will suggest the optimal method.
How air freight is arranged

- export and transport document processing;
- dispatch by air to the destination airport;
- customs clearance and handover.
Documents

What affects cost and timing
Air delivery is affected by the cargo's weight and volume, the direction, urgency and flight availability. An exact calculation is made for a specific batch — contact a manager.
