Air freight services for business customers
LetMeShip is your experienced partner for air freight shipments. Shipping goods by air freight is one of the fastest and most reliable shipping modes. However, air freight costs are usually higher than for other shipping modes. Use the option of air freight to transport smaller quantities of valuable and/or time-critical shipments from A to B. Choose one of our air services such as belly freight, slot bookings or full and part charters.

International air freight with leading global freight companies
Particularly for international shipping, transport by air offers a number of advantages: generally high security standards, short transit times over long distances and the precise, to-the-minute organisation of international flight operations, which almost completely eliminates delays or disruptions. Ideal for particularly time-critical or valuable goods!
Air freight services with reliable CEP service providers
Many CEP service providers and air freight forwarders operate their own cargo airlines and have access to a large transportation network. This means that secure supply chains can be organised in a more crisis-resistant way with air freight than with other modes of transport. FedEx, UPS and DHL are among the world’s leading air freight carriers. They all have an extensive global network and offer reliable services for the delivery of time-sensitive goods to maintain the supply chain.
Demand for air cargo services is constantly increasing
Air freight is booming: in the last 20 years, the volume of freight handled worldwide at airports has risen significantly. A distinction is made between belly freight — the additional load in normal passenger aircraft — and transport in special cargo aircraft. In both cases, specific requirements regarding permissible quantities, dimensions and, in particular, packaging must be observed.

FAQ Air Freight Services
The permissible dimensions are based on the size of the aircraft hold – from just 86 cm in a Boeing 737 to 3 metres in a Boeing 747 F. However, all aircraft have the same packaging requirements: packaging must be designed to withstand impacts of three times the cargo weight as well as acceleration and vibrations of up to 500 hertz. Added to this are the stresses caused by stacking different pieces of cargo.

Shipping solutions for all requirements – not just air cargo services
Whether you need to send important documents quickly, want to send a parcel cheaply or need to transport bulky pallets – at LetMeShip you will find not only air cargo shipping but also many other shipping services for pallets and documents. Take a look at our special services. There you will find many alternatives for fast shipping, although air cargo is the most efficient solution with regard to transit time.
For clients for whom air freight services are out of the question we do offer other shipping options, such as sea freight or direct delivery or even on-board couriers for the import and export of goods.
Although air freight transport is possible for heavy or bulky industrial goods, it is extremely expensive and complicated. Sea freight transport can be a possible alternative for goods that are not time-critical. It is cheaper but takes considerably longer. Depending on the destination country, the average delivery time can be between 18 and 20 days.
It is often a combination of different transport routes to maintain your supply chain.
Please note that we do not offer Sea Freight in every country.
The shipment of dangerous goods is generally subject to strict regulations. In principle, shipment is possible with any means of transport. However, transporting dangerous goods by air carries poses the greatest risk and is therefore subject to even stricter regulations and quantity limits, which are summarised in the IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations (DGR).
