It’s more exactly in transportation filed for example: if you book transit service, your cargo need delivery to transit port and then cargo will be repackaged, change airline, reload from transit port to final destination. Your risk is lost cargo, wrong package, damage packing, … if you use cheaper rate, and choose some Airline has not good service in the market. This issue is very difficult with new customer, so you need some advice from forwarders to have more information.

And the Air freight will be charged per kilogram (kg), you can refer the method to estimate air freight as below: min, -45kgs, + 45kgs, + 100 kgs, + 300kgs, + 500kgs, + 1000kgs, …

And you also need give Airline basic information to check Estimate Time Departed:
– Name of cargo
– Volume
– Dimension (it’s very important)
