How does Air freight Forwarding Services help you?
Air transport, or air freight, is today the fastest means of transporting people and cargo over long distances. In inhospitable regions that lack port or road infrastructure, air transport is often the only means of connection with the rest of the world.
What kinds of aircraft are used in air travel?
Commercial aircraft are primarily used for passenger transport and only have limited cargo capacity in their holds. However, several aircraft models are specially designed for cargo transport work today.
- These aircraft have a wider and taller fuselage than a passenger or mixed-use (cargo and passenger) aircraft.
- They also have special retention and security equipment for their containers and equipment to facilitate the loading and unloading of merchandise.
- They also have larger gates to facilitate the entry and exit of containers or large boxes.
- Thanks to a special hinge system, the largest ones can even be opened at the front end, separating the cockpit from the rest of the fuselage.
- Others allow loading from the rear, facilitating the entry of longer vehicles or containers.
- They also have sturdier landing gear that allows them to land on unpaved or low-maintenance runways.
Advantages of air freight?
Air transport has advantages you must consider if you want to contract freight through this system.
- On average, a cargo jet plane flies above 700 kilometers per hour.
- This is critical if the delivery time of your products is critical, such as when transporting perishable goods.
- Once airborne, planes can travel for many hours and cover long distances before needing to land for refueling.
- In addition, air routes are usually shorter because they use paths with fewer detours than those used by land or sea transport.
