Typical enquiries include engineering spares, industrial components, commercial samples and packaged general cargo. Send the commodity description, number of packages, gross weight and dimensions of each packed piece. Photographs help clarify awkward shapes or handling restrictions that a total weight alone cannot explain.
Air cargo pricing commonly considers chargeable weight, which compares actual gross weight with a volume-based weight under the applicable carrier rules. Lightweight bulky packaging can therefore affect the quote substantially. Confirm final packed measurements, stackability and whether the goods require protection from vibration, moisture or handling impacts.
Batteries, chemicals, liquids and temperature-sensitive products require early disclosure. Acceptance, packaging, declarations and any specialist arrangements must be checked before booking. A general cargo enquiry does not establish that a restricted commodity can travel on a proposed flight.
