3AIR FREIGHT FORWARDING
- Air freight forwarding is the process of
organizing and planning the transport of freight
from one point to another by air. - We can address any challenges you have with
transporting your freight by providing innovative
ideas and the means to develop and implement
solutions to get the job done. - Our tracking systems and proactive approach to

5AIR FREIGHT LOGISTICS
- International air cargo is heavily regulated. As
such, many opt for a freight forwarder who works
exclusively with air shipments. - An international air freight forwarder can help
you navigate through all key freight documents,
insurance, customs, air freight logistics, and
any turbulence you encounter along the way.
- An international air freight
forwarder can also ensure that your goods are
packed to fit the non-traditional shape of an
aircraft and effectively optimize the space you
pay for.
6AIR FREIGHT TRANSPORTATION AND PROCESS
- Air shipments are faster and more reliable than
ocean shipments. As counterintuitive as it might
seem, they can also be cheaper. - How is that possible?
- The way prices are calculated for ocean and air
shipments are fundamentally different. The cost
of sending cargo on a ship is generally
calculated by its volume. Conversely, the cost of
sending cargo by air is generally calculated by
its weight. - Additionally, ocean shipments commonly have
minimum weights and measurements that must be
met. - As such, large and heavy shipments are almost
always cheaper to send by ocean, but smaller and
lighter shipments can actually be cheaper to send
by air. - The trick is to figure out whether your freight
meets that happy medium.
7CALCULATE AIR FREIGHT RATES
- There is no off-the-shelf solution to freight
and, as such, determining the cost of a freight
forwarder is not simple. - Thats because there are literally dozens of
variables that go into calculating the cost of a
freight forwarding service. Some forwarders
include certain costs upfront, while others offer
them as an option. - Others yet may not offer specific services at
all. - Thats why it is important to ask the right
questions. - Rather than asking what a forwarder charges,
inquire about what you are getting as part of
your freight quote.
8ARE AIR FREIGHT RATES ALWAYS MORE EXPENSIVE THAN
OCEAN FREIGHT?
- The cost of shipping goods by air is
comparatively high, which is why, for the
majority of international shipping scenarios, it
is not as popular as ocean freight. - However, there are some situations in which the
price difference can be negligible, like when you
only move small shipments of goods. - Thats because port and customs fees for imports
via sea can mount up quickly, offsetting the cost
savings of a slower and less secure
transportation mode. - In these types of circumstance, you might find
that booking a deferred air cargo shipment will
cost little more than ocean freight, while still
being a lot faster.
9IS AIR SHIPPING SECURE AND RELIABLE?
- Air cargo is especially suitable for low-volume,
high-value shipments because the total time
between the dispatch of your goods and their
receipt by the consignee is minimized, creating
fewer opportunities for security to be
compromised. - Similarly, the less time your shipment spends in
transit, the lower the risk of damage, so air
transportation is ideal for fragile or
perishable, goods.
10WHAT IS THE IMPACT OF AIR FREIGHT SHIPPING ON
TRANSIT TIMES?
- Of course, speed is the primary advantage of
shipping by air, along with flexibility, because
passenger aircraft, as well as dedicated
freighters, can carry your shipments. - Therefore, when its essential to get your
products or materials from one country to another
in double-quick time, theres no better way to
send them than as air cargo. - Be aware though, that international air freight
is not as fast as domestic cargo aviation,
because your goods are likely to spend at least a
day or two undergoing customs processing at the
airport of loading, as well as the airport of
discharge. - If youd like to get some idea of typical transit
times, youll find lots of details on

11WHATS IN AN INTERNATIONAL AIR FREIGHT SHIPPING
QUOTE?
- Air quotes typically comprise many lines as
Follows - Base freight rate Charged according to the
actual or volumetric weight of your goods. - Fuel surcharge Typically imposed to protect the
carrier against fluctuating fuel costs. - Security fee The costs of security screening are
passed on to shippers by the air carriers. - Customs clearance fees These will appear on your
quote if you choose door-to-door shipping. - Cargo insurance fees These are the charges you
will need to pay to cover your freight against
risk while it is in transit. - Trucking fees If you choose door-to-door,
door-to-port, or port-to-door shipping, your
quote will include the cost of road
transportation. - Container freight station fee This fee is for
any temporary storage of your air freight
container at the airport of loading and/or
airport of discharge.
12HOW TO OPTIMIZE YOUR AIR FREIGHT SHIPPING COSTS?
- Given the high cost of shipping goods by air, it
makes sense to take - any measures possible to keep fees to a minimum.
Here are three - quick tips for cost-effective air transportation
- Choose air freight door to door shipping with
Faster Freight. We will search for the most
cost-efficient combination of transportation
services, not only reducing the landed cost of
your shipment, but also saving you the
administrative costs of finding domestic carriers
and comparing their quotes. - Package your goods as compactly as possible.
Every centimeter you add to the dimensions of
your cargo will increase the base rate if your
carrier charges by volumetric weight. - Take advantage of the Faster Freight compliance
engine to ensure all your shipping documents are
completed accurately and in full, reducing the
risk of delays and demurrage charges.
13HOW DOES FASTER FREIGHT DIFFER FROM OTHER AIR
FREIGHT FORWARDERS?
- The main differentiator for Faster Freight is our
digital-first approach to freight forwarding.
Although the use of technology for air cargo
management is on the rise, most forwarders apply
it on a limited basis, reluctant to break away
from the methodical, but inefficient manual
processes used for decades. - At Faster Freight, we set out to create a digital
product, not with the primary aim of internal
efficiencies but to help our customers,
especially SMEs, to access similar service levels
to those enjoyed by larger-scale beneficial cargo
owners. - Thats why, when you use our platform, you will
find that booking your freight onto a flight is a
simple, straightforward process, as close as it
gets to booking flights for yourself. Of course,
it is a little more involved, but you do have the
convenience of a single platform with
self-service quotation requests, bookings,
payment, air cargo tracking, automated compliance
processes and the help of human logistics experts
as and when you need it.
14CAN I BE SURE YOUR SERVICES ARE RELIABLE?
- We are a technology-oriented company, not a
technology company. Faster Freight is a
subsidiary of Agility Logistics, with a mission
to simplify international shipping by way of
digital innovation. - We have Agilitys entire global logistics network
at our disposal, so you can be confident that
every quote we issue is competitive and that
every shipment is managed by a networked force of
consummate logistics experts, using a
long-established freight network trusted by some
of the worlds largest supply chain
organizations. - In short, yes, you can be assured of reliable, as
well as cost-effective air freight services from
Faster Freight.
