Fast and reliable - With airfreight all over the world
Air freight offers both the flexibility and speed denied by other modes of transportation. In just a few days, goods can be shipped anywhere in the world with unparalleled security and speed.
What advantages there are with shipping by air freight and how ECL Air supports this, we explain below.
The advantages of air freight
Air freight has many advantages over other modes of transportation such as ocean freight or land transportation. While the transport from Asia for example in a full container takes 30-40 days, we can deliver air freight shipments mostly in less than a week. Especially for urgently needed goods, such as spare parts, this is a great advantage which cannot be beaten.
Also, there are some goods and transport goods that can be transported almost only by air freight - these include:
Medical and pharmaceutical products
Live animals
Flowers and other plants
relief goods
Seasonal goods
important documents
Particularly high-value goods
In addition to the advantages already mentioned, the high safety standards of air transport and precise flight schedules offer a less disruptive overall logistics concept. What's more, air freight can be delivered to almost any corner of the world. After all, even the most remote island has its own airport these days.
Like all other modes of transport, air freight naturally has a few disadvantages. The biggest one is the comparatively high cost of transportation. Therefore, when shipping particularly heavy goods or large quantities, you should think about shipping them.
