Tips for air cargo transportation

Home For customers Tips for air cargo transportation

Transportation of Cargoes

Transportation of cargoes by the aircraft is a reliable and the quickest method of delivery. The airfreight has a great deal of peculiarities, which should be considered in order to save time and money. Following several simple rules will help to arrange the air transportation within the shortest period of time.

Advise air carrier the nature, weight and dimensions of cargo. The aircraft has limitations on cargo weight, volume and type. The specialists will find the earliest flight of a relevant aircraft and will calculate transportation costs. Please check double if your cargo belongs to the category of prohibited or dangerous goods.

Take care of the package – it should comply with the category of cargo, which is transported, and remain intact during all transportation. Please mark all cargo pieces with labels, which contain consignee data. Prepare all the required accompanying documents.
Coordinate the time and the place, where you will bring the cargo for its further transportation on the aircraft. Or notify the carrier, where and when he can collect the cargo.

Please specify which stages of the cargo preparation you can do yourself and which stages you will entrust your carrier.

Please provide the address and contact information on the shipper and consignee. You will be informed about the flight number, departure date and airway bill number, by which you can track the cargo arrival at the destination airport.

Transportation of Dangerous Cargoes

The experience shows that many things, which may seem harmless, can be classified as dangerous cargoes. For example, food flavor intensifiers, perfumes, alcoholic beverages, aerosols, chemicals, electronic equipment, etc. belong to the dangerous goods. Atmospheric pressure and air temperature change at high altitudes, and the vibration appears. The aircraft is a closed space, that is why it is not possible to remove the goods or neutralize the consequences of the hazardous effect of a substance or article. That is why such cargoes may endanger the flight safety and the health of passengers and crew.

Dangerous goods transportation is governed by legislation and aviation regulations. The dangerous goods are classified in accordance with hazard types. You can get acquainted with the dangerous goods classification on our website on the page Dangerous Goods Characteristics.

Before you plan the air transportation, please consult the specialist in dangerous goods transportation. In case the cargo turns out to be really dangerous – not every airport has licenses and certificates for accepting and handling the dangerous cargo. That is why you may have to send the cargo to the nearest airport (another one), and then to use inland transportation for delivery to the required destination. Regarding the airlines, they may also have their own rules and limitations on separate danger classes.

The dangerous cargo should have a package which completely complies with the valid standards and regulations. The package of dangerous goods should be dry and clean, without sharp corners and ledges to prevent damaging other goods or the aircraft. The package for liquid or powdered cargoes should sustain high pressure, vibrations and temperature control in the aircraft and completely prevent leakage or dispersal of the content during flight. Please be responsible for packing the dangerous goods.

Transportation of dangerous goods is possible only if the following accompanying documents are available:

  • MSDS- material safety data sheet;
  • Technical conditions.

If the above mentioned documents are missing, it is necessary to provide the data, which describe a nature of goods to the maximum extent (complete description, composition, peculiarities, etc). Also the required data should describe the internal and external packages, weight (nett, gross) and the capacity in liters.

In order to book the flight, obtain a complete consulting in all peculiarities of the dangerous goods airfreight and to check the cost, please call on the phone or write an e-mail: +38 (044)364-34-03/07; export@tsu.kiev.ua

Transportation of Live Animals

Due to different circumstances, sometimes it is necessary to transport pets to another place or country. The aircraft is the best and the quickest transport mean for covering the distances between the cities, which are at a distance of several thousand kilometers from each other.

Please be advised that each airlines have its own roles for transportation of live animals. Some airlines allow to transport animals only in the passenger cabin, or only in the luggage compartment. That is why it is necessary to select the air carrier in advance.

Please check in advance all the requirements and the paperwork procedure in the Veterinary Inspection Service of the departure airport.

In order to obtain a complete consulting in live animals transportation, please contact the managers of our company kbp@tsu.kiev.ua; +38 (044)281-77-38
