Air freight has become one of the most essential services offered by global shipping companies, especially with the rapid expansion of international trade. As the world has transformed into a connected global village through the internet, the demand for fast, reliable, and efficient shipping solutions has significantly increased. Air cargo emerged as the ideal answer—offering speed, safety, and high-quality handling to meet modern logistics needs.
Air freight revolutionized global cargo transportation by drastically reducing delivery times while maintaining maximum product safety. It is considered one of the safest shipping methods, with the lowest risk of damage from breakage or spoilage. Although used for various types of goods, air freight is particularly important for perishable products such as fruits, vegetables, meat, and other food items. It is also crucial for time-sensitive shipments, including medical supplies.
Despite being more expensive than sea or land shipping, air freight often saves money overall due to its speed, efficiency, and reduced risk of product loss.
Most shipping companies have partnered with major airlines to offer this service at competitive prices and high reliability. As demand increased, air freight evolved from using cargo space in passenger aircraft to deploying fully dedicated cargo planes.
At TürkMirsal, we recognize the importance of air freight and are committed to providing our clients with fast, reliable, and competitively priced shipping solutions from Turkey to destinations worldwide.
How Air Freight Shipping Works from Turkey
Air freight is a highly structured process that requires precision and coordination. The main steps include:
1. Contracting with the Airline
A shipping agreement is signed between the exporter and the airline to authorize cargo transportation.
2. Sorting and Packaging
Goods are inspected, categorized, and separated based on fragility or perishability.
They are then:
- Properly packaged
- Secured in suitable containers
- Labeled according to international shipping standards
3. Issuing the Air Waybill (AWB)
A specialized team prepares the Air Waybill, which includes:
- Shipper information
- Consignee details
- Departure and arrival airports
- Cargo description and weight
4. Transport to the Airport
The cargo is transported by truck to the airport, verified, and loaded onto the aircraft safely and correctly.
5. Arrival and Delivery
Once the shipment reaches the destination airport, our trained team:
- Receives the cargo
