Service options

  • Airport-to-airport

    From the departure airport to the destination airport; shipper and consignee handle the inland legs.

  • Consolidation

    Several shippers' cargo travels under one master air waybill (MAWB), for better rates on small shipments.

  • Door-to-door

    The whole journey from the shipper's warehouse to the consignee's, including pick-up, customs and delivery.

  • Charter flight

    A whole freighter flight for large, oversized cargo or cargo that needs its own schedule.

  • Hand carry

    An on-board courier carries the goods on a passenger flight and hands them to the consignee, for small, very urgent shipments.

Process

The standard steps of a shipment. The actual flow can vary with the cargo, the route and the delivery terms.

Export

  1. Step 1

    Enquiry and quotation

    You send the cargo type, pieces, weight, dimensions and destination airport; freight is charged on actual or volumetric weight, whichever is higher.

  2. Step 2

    Booking with the airline

    We book space on a suitable flight; dangerous, temperature-controlled or oversized cargo must be declared and accepted by the airline first.

    • Booking confirmation
  3. Step 3

    Pick-up, packing and labelling

    The cargo is collected from the shipper, packing is checked and labels are applied to the airline's requirements.

    • Packing list
    • Dangerous goods declaration (DGD, if any)
  4. Step 4

    Export customs clearance

    The declaration is filed on VNACCS/VCIS and handled according to the green, yellow or red channel.

    • Customs declaration
    • Commercial invoice
  5. Step 5

    Lodging at the airport cargo terminal

    The cargo is delivered to the departure cargo terminal before the cut-off, where it is weighed, measured and security screened.

  6. Step 6

    Air waybill

    The airline issues the master air waybill (MAWB); for consolidated cargo the forwarder issues a house air waybill (HAWB) for each shipper.

    • MAWB
    • HAWB
  7. Step 7

    Flight tracking and documents

    We follow the flight and update you and the destination agent; documents travel with the cargo or go ahead to the consignee.

Import

    Enquiry and coordination with the agent

    We work with the shipper and our overseas agent on pick-up and booking, and receive the pre-alert.
