When air freight is worth it

Air pays when a day saved is worth more than the freight.

  • Medicines and APIs

    Many have short shelf lives, so a day in transit costs money. We fly medicines and APIs that keep at room temperature.

  • Electronic parts

    Chips and circuit boards weigh little for what they cost. Models change fast, so the parts must arrive on time.

  • Fresh food and flowers

    Fruit, vegetables, flowers and seafood spoil in days. We book them on an early flight and move them through the airport fast.

  • Gems and jewellery

    They are tiny and worth a fortune. Air gets them there fast, with less time on the road.

  • Fashion for a season

    A collection that lands after the season loses its value. Flying it puts it on the shelf in time.

  • A part your line needs

    One missing part can stop your line. Flying it in gets the line moving again.

  • Samples for a buyer

    Your buyer wants to see the goods before they order. Samples are small, so flying them costs little.

  • An urgent export

    Your buyer needs the goods by a set date. Flying them out keeps the order.

  • A damaged delivery

    Goods arrived damaged and your customer is waiting. A replacement by air keeps the order on track.

  • Something else to fly?

    Tell us what it is and when it must arrive. We will plan the flight with you.

What we check before your cargo flies

One wrong weight or name can hold your cargo at the airport. So we check each line of the air waybill against your invoice and packing list.

Brands That Trust Us

Why brands fly their cargo with us

  1. Urgent goods in fast

    Air brings in urgent parts and samples quickly. Your line keeps running while the rest comes by sea.

  2. Cleared at the airport

    Our customs team clears your cargo at the terminal. Your goods do not wait for a separate agent.

  3. The cost known before it flies

    We check the weight and size before we book. So you know what the flight costs up front.

  4. Every flight on one screen

    You follow each shipment on our platform, from the airport it leaves to your door.

  5. Air and sea with one team

    Send the urgent part of an order by air and the rest by sea. One team runs both.

  6. One bill for the whole move

    Freight, customs, trucks and storage come on one bill. You pay only for what you use.

When should I ship by air instead of sea?
Ship by air when time matters more than cost. Urgent parts, samples and high-value goods often go by air. Large, heavy orders cost much less by sea.
How is air freight charged?
Airlines charge by weight or by size, whichever is more. So a light but bulky carton is charged by its size. We work this out before we book, so you know the cost. Airport, customs and truck charges come on top.
Which airports do you work at?
We clear air cargo at India's main airports: Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad and Kolkata.
Can you clear my air cargo at customs?
Yes. We check the bill of entry or shipping bill against your invoice and packing list. Then our customs team clears your cargo at the airport. For imports, we arrange the duty payment with you.
What papers do I need to ship by air?
You need an Importer Exporter Code (IEC) and a GST registration. Each shipment needs its invoice, packing list and air waybill. Some goods also need a licence or a certificate. Our trade compliance page lists them all.
What is an air waybill?
It is the airline's receipt for your cargo and its contract to carry it. It names the shipper, the buyer, the pieces and the weight. You do not need the original to collect your goods, as you do with some bills of lading.
Do you issue your own air waybill?
Yes, on exports. We hold the licence to issue our own air waybill, so the team that books your flight also makes your papers.
Can I track my air shipment?
Yes. Our platform shows each shipment while it flies. Once it lands, you follow our truck to your door.
Can you store air cargo after it lands?
Yes. Our truck can take it straight to your plant, or into one of our warehouses. We send it on when you need. Our network page shows every city.
Can I send part of an order by air and the rest by sea?
Yes. Many brands fly the urgent part and ship the rest. One team books both, clears both and brings both to you. Our ocean freight page shows the sea side.
Can you collect the cargo from my supplier abroad?
Yes. We can collect your cargo from your supplier's factory and clear it for export there. Then we fly it in and bring it to you.
Can you insure my air cargo?
Yes. We arrange cargo insurance for each shipment by air. Ask us for the cover your goods need.
How long does air freight take?
The flight itself is quick. Most of the time goes on handling at each airport and on customs. We give you the dates when we book.
