When dealing with oversized or overweight freight, air shipping becomes one of the most difficult tasks in modern logistics. These types of goods are special and require careful planning and execution, which often goes beyond common practices in airfreight services.
Air shipping is still the best option for fast deliveries of high-value items in today’s dynamic world trade. But when it comes to very large or heavy loads, this is more than just transportation; it requires knowledge about aircraft capabilities, compliance with regulations and custom-made routes.
Large-sized loads like industrial machinery, wind turbine blades or even luxury yachts need an individual approach. The crucial thing here is finding an aircraft that can fit such dimensions and weight. Our airplanes are designed specifically for oversized payloads; their ability to work in difficult conditions along with great lifting capacity makes them irreplaceable in this field.
It is important to follow safety rules according to civil aviation regulations. It means that if shipment exceeds standard parameters, there must be some restrictions adopted for both cargo itself as well as passengers’ protection. Sometimes different authorities (e.g., airport services, ATC departments etc.) have to be involved into this process together with cargo security teams.
Another stage is associated with route planning which becomes much more complicated compared to regular cargoes. Non-standard items may require specific flight paths and altitudes due to airspace limitations imposed on them by size alone.In some cases charter flights allow us avoiding commercial airline constraints but at higher costs.
