Frequently Asked Questions

What are the types of air freight?

There are a number of options for customers considering air freight as a way of transporting their cargo. ‘Consolidated shipments’ include cargo from different customers on the same flight. ‘Back to back or direct services’ give customers dedicated use of a plane’s hold for a single shipment of goods on scheduled flights and ‘on charter services’ give customers complete control over the plane’s schedule, route and cargo capacity.

How is air freight rates calculated?

The cost of shipping an item by air is generally based on weight and, if the item is particularly oversized, its proportions, in addition to the distance from your intended shipping destination. Beyond these fundamental costs, there may be some additions depending on the specifics of your end-to-end service. These could include: fuel, storage, security, handling, customs, delivery, insurance, and other ancillary costs. Freight forwarders like RJJ Freight benefit from being able to charge based on the weight and volume of your shipment, with cost-effective solutions always on offer.

What is the difference between air freight and cargo?

‘Air cargo’ and ‘air freight’ are often used interchangeably, but they don’t mean exactly the same thing. Cargo and freight can mean the goods being transported, but ‘air freight’ also describes the process of flying goods in planes within logistics networks.
