Air Freight Products

As we are able to utilise many services including our own consolidation service, we can offer a variety of air freight solutions for your every need.

 

Priority

Priority is ideal for time-critical shipments. All consignments are scheduled for the next direct flight or fastest available connection. Typical transit time of 1 to 2 days airport to airport.

 

Standard

Standard provides a cost-effective and timely solution, as with our extensive online network, we can serve most destinations several times a week and major centres daily. Typical transit time of 3 to 4 days airport to airport.

 

Economy

Where transit times are less critical, we recommend economy – it’s our most cost effective product. Typical transit time of 5 to 6 days airport to airport. In addition to offering you the many products and solutions noted above, we are also able to offer, using our on line tariff and booking service, services such as

  • Door to door

  • Humanitarian aid and relief
  • Government transport

Hot Shot

Hot shot air freight movement is mainly used in the oil and gas industries. This is a very small but very urgent piece of cargo which needs to be air freighted that very same day. The cargo is generally that small so it can be taken on the aircraft as hand luggage.

Aircraft on Ground (AOG)

Aircraft on Ground means simply as it reads. When an aircraft is stranded on the ground due to technical problems, the key is to ensure the parts required arrive as soon as humanly possible to avoid serious delays in all matter of areas. That’s why we have a team of dedicate staff that guarantees to get our customers aircrafts back in the air.

 

As we work closely with all the major airlines and operators, many of these partners also count on our air freight team. The team’s passion for solutions and 100% dedication are required in the unfortunate situation of an Aircraft on Ground (AOG). From small parts up to larger products, we are amongst the market leaders in chartering a variety of able bodied aircrafts to accommodate your shipment. Tailored to your individual needs, we offer global AOG solutions.

 

AGF Shipping’s worldwide agency network offers the full package. Pick up, delivery, packing, customs clearance and much more. We are only one call away.

Sea-Air Traffic

If you are finding your airfreight rates too high for long-haul shipments but need faster transport than sea freight alone, consider a careful blend of the two.

 

Sea-Air / Air-Sea traffic combines the economy of the sea with the speed of the air to give you a cost-effective solution. This fusion of transport modes enables you to send goods from Asia to Europe, North and South America, or Africa within 2-3 weeks.

 

So if your goods are cost-sensitive and not absolutely urgent, consider the combined benefits of Sea-Air / Air-Sea traffic from us. It could be the perfect answer.
