Other restrictions will apply due to national laws and regulations of specific airlines. One example is that following the discovery of bombs on a flight due to leave the UK in 2010, the Government imposed a temporary ban on the carriage of printer cartridges from unapproved shippers.
Individuals who are sending personal effects or household items in a crate have to supply a full packing list.

AIR FREIGHT Options
The majority of shippers will opt for the relatively affordable option of Consolidated Freight. this is where the freight forwarder combines your shipment with others to create a more cost-effective load and gets better rates from the airline due to the economy of scale.
It does take time to put together loads this way and the flights handling consolidated freight are less frequent than dedicated services.
Companies who have more goods to ship may fill a scheduled plane hold and they can use a ‘Back to Back’ or Direct service. This will often travel on the next available flight direct to its destination, using just one Master Airway Bill (MAWB).
At considerable extra cost it is possible to arrange Aircraft Charter of a freight plane. This is paid for in advance, cancellation charges are steep and the customer pays for a round trip.
We can offer the usual options including collection, customs clearance, delivery and also special cargo requirements.
