Air freight in transit

When to Choose Air Freight

Air freight fits shipments where speed matters more than cost, such as tight deadlines, high-value goods, or cargo that can’t wait for sea or land transit. For large-volume or less time-sensitive shipments, sea or land freight is typically more cost-effective.

Not the right fit?

Value Added Services

Air Freight Value Added Services

Beyond standard air cargo transport, Zajel provides a full range of supporting services to ensure your shipment is prepared, protected, and compliant from origin to destination.

01.

Professional Packing and Crating

Custom wooden crating and industrial packing for fragile, high-value, or irregularly shaped cargo. Our packing team assesses each shipment and builds packaging to withstand air transport handling, including shock-absorbent materials, moisture barriers, and securing straps where required.

02.

Cargo Consolidation

Combine multiple smaller shipments into a single consolidated load to reduce per-unit air freight costs. Ideal for businesses shipping regular smaller consignments to the same destination, with individual tracking maintained for each component shipment.

03.

Temperature Controlled Handling

For pharmaceutical products, perishable goods, and sensitive materials that require controlled environments during transit. Temperature monitoring throughout the air freight journey, with documentation provided for compliance and audit purposes.

04.

Cargo Insurance

Protect your air freight shipment against loss, damage, or delay during transit. Coverage is available for all cargo types and can be added at the time of booking, with guidance from our team on appropriate coverage levels based on cargo value and route.

Cargo Parameters

Air Freight Weight & Dimension Guidelines

Understanding air freight weight and size limits helps you plan shipments and choose the right service configuration through Zajel.

01.

Chargeable Weight

Airlines charge based on whichever is greater, the actual gross weight or the volumetric weight. Lightweight but bulky shipments are charged at their volumetric weight.

02.

Oversize Cargo

Items exceeding standard dimensions can be shipped via wide-body aircraft or charter flights. Our team coordinates aircraft selection and loading plans for oversized cargo.

03.

Dangerous Goods

Certain hazardous materials can be transported by air with proper classification, packaging, and documentation in accordance with IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations.

04.

Stackable vs Non-Stackable

Non-stackable cargo may incur additional charges as it limits how other freight can be loaded around it. Proper packaging and palletization helps optimize space and cost.
