When the date is the point

Air freight

Air answers a deadline rather than a budget. It is priced on chargeable weight, so it suits cargo that is urgent, valuable, or small enough that the premium is worth paying: the spare part holding up a job, samples, documents, anything where the cost of waiting is higher than the cost of flying. We quote it against the sea option so you can see the difference before you choose.
