What kind of cargo suits air freight?

Cargo where delay is expensive: production-critical spares, perishables, pharmaceuticals, high-value electronics, samples and launch stock. As a rule of thumb, the higher the value or urgency per kilo, the more air freight makes commercial sense against sea.

Can you handle dangerous goods?

Yes, where the airline and route accept them. DG must be classified, packed, marked and declared to IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations, and some classes are simply not carried on passenger aircraft. Send the safety data sheet early and we will confirm acceptance before booking.

Do you offer door-to-door, or only airport-to-airport?

Both. Airport-to-airport suits shippers with their own clearance and haulage. Door-to-door means we collect, screen, fly, clear at destination and deliver — one booking, one point of contact, customs handled at both ends.

What documentation is required?

Commercial invoice, packing list, the air waybill we issue, and export or import declarations. Depending on commodity and destination you may also need a certificate of origin, phytosanitary or health certificate, a DG declaration or licence documentation — we confirm the full list at quotation.

Do you cover domestic as well as international lanes?

Yes. Domestic air cargo moves between Indian airports for time-critical inland consignments, and international lanes are booked through airline and agent partners in both directions, with surface legs bridging to the actual origin and destination.
