More businesses in Sydney are realising that they need a quick and efficient mode of transport to meet the demands of their customers. Read on to discover the various service options available for businesses who wish to use air freight.
Learn if air freight is suitable for your business needs. Meeting customer demands In today's highly competitive and global market place, customer demands are increasing.
Customers are under more pressure and are less interested in waiting for their shipments, while at the same time they have more options to source their products from. As an importer or exporter you need to get your products to each customer within the required time to make the sale.
In an ideal world, the customer would be happy to wait for your freight forwarding company to organise sea freight shipments to them. But in reality, many customers won't or can't wait the two to three weeks import sea freight from China can take.
Air freight in Sydney is the fastest way to move your cargo to meet customer demands. It is the most expensive, but when used efficiently, the use of air freight can boost your business.
When booking air freight in Sydney, there are two main options: Direct air freight in Sydney This is the fastest option available when choosing air freight in Sydney. Direct air freight services are the same as direct passenger services with cargo going direct from the origin city to the destination city.
Direct air freight is a more expensive option and will get your cargo there quicker (roughly 24-36 hours). Deferred air freight in Sydney Deferred air freight services are the same as changing planes during a passenger service.
This means the cargo will stop at a popular transit point such as Shanghai or Singapore before being loaded onto another flight heading to Sydney. At BCR, we recommend this option less frequently to our customers as the cargo may not make the connecting flight which can delay your shipment.
