Only Use Fully Certified International Air Freight Services

By Lelia Hall


Many businesses need immediate delivery for many documents and parcels to different countries worldwide. While many can be sent via email others need to have signatures and returned as soon as possible in order for certain transaction to proceed. That is why many are using International Air Freight Services.

At UPS they deliver packages anywhere in Africa to Asia. This includes the Far East, South East and the subcontinents of Pakistan and Sri Lanka. They also cover the Pacific Islands and Australia as well as those in the Caribbean including Haiti and Trinidad and Central America, Europe, the Middle East, North America and South America.

Each company will have their own rules and regulations so the prices will vary and this will also depend on the destination. The majority of them will have a website where one can go and browse and ask questions if need be. It is best to use the more well known names and if still unsure read the reviews people have written regarding the company they have used in the past.

Swiftair International is located in Durban, South Africa and has been in business since 1986. They have grown into one of the leading forwarding and clearing companies in the country. Their service is extremely good and they go out of their way to provide their customers with tailored packages. They were voted as their countries representative to the Hi Tech Forwarders Network and are now one of the leading networks worldwide. They have people in over sixty countries in six different continents. Their staff is trained to act professionally and they guarantee trustworthy and cost effective services.

If there are any specialized loads the floor will be reinforced. However the A330-P2F is already able to accommodate sixty five tonnes on the main deck and another forty tonnes on the lower deck. If the change is not extensive it will only take about six weeks whereas the more complicated alteration can take anything up to four months and sometimes longer.

When deciding on which one to use it is best to take into consideration whether one is a business owner or an individual as well as what budget one has. Another very important factor to take into consideration is time. Air freight is of course much quicker then ocean but is quite expensive.

They provide shipping for personal effects as well as car and commercial shipping as well. It is advisable to fill in an on-line quote and provide the exact proportions and weight so that the costs can be calculated. They advice taking out insurance to cover the goods but at the same time encouraged their customers to ask for other available options.

With Ocean freight each article is charged by volume whereby with Air it is charged by weight. When going by aeroplane there are much fewer stops made unlike the ocean going. Both of them do however provide a tracking service where one can keep a record of where the parcels are at a specific time of day. Many people that are immigrating to another country find that shipping their contents is much more cost effective although it can take a few months to reach its destination.
