Operational questions
Frequently asked questions
Clear answers regarding rates, transit cut-offs, customs, and documentation.
How is chargeable weight calculated in air freight?
Air freight charges are based on the greater of actual gross weight (in kilograms) or volumetric weight. Volumetric weight is calculated using the standard IATA formula: (Length × Width × Height in cm) ÷ 6,000. If 1 cubic meter weighs less than 167 kg, it is charged at 167 kg.
Can you ship lithium batteries or electronic devices by air?
Yes. Lithium batteries and electronics are classified under IATA Dangerous Goods regulations (Section IA, IB, or II of PI 965-970). We verify UN 38.3 test summaries, prepare proper hazard labeling, and arrange compliant carrier booking.
What is the transit time for air freight from Dubai to European or US hubs?
Priority direct flights reach major European gateways (Frankfurt, London, Amsterdam) within 7–12 hours flight time and deliver within 24–48 hours door-to-door. US and Far East destinations are typically delivered within 48–72 hours.
Do you offer pickup service from manufacturing facilities in the UAE?
Yes. Our local fleet provides scheduled same-day collections across Dubai, Sharjah, Abu Dhabi, and Ras Al Khaimah for immediate transfer to the airport cargo terminal.
