Air Freight
Global Airport Coverage
International routing through major passenger and freighter.
Time-Critical Planning
Service level selected against the actual delivery deadline.
Shipment Control
One coordinator follows the shipment from pickup through delivery.
What are Air Freight Services?
Air freight moves commercial cargo by scheduled passenger aircraft, dedicated freighters or chartered capacity. It is suited to urgent replenishment, high-value goods, critical parts, product launches and other shipments where a long transit can cost more than the freight itself. For Canadian importers and exporters, the right air solution balances airport routing, chargeable weight, cut-off times, customs readiness and final delivery.

SERVICE TYPES
Which option is right for you?
Standard Air Freight
A balanced service for commercial cargo that needs faster transit than ocean freight without paying for the highest-priority express option. Good for: Businesses with regular shipping schedules that want air speed without express pricing.
Express Air freight
Priority routing for urgent cargo with the shortest practical airport-to-airport or door-to-door timeline available for the lane. Good for: Urgent shipments, production-critical parts, and last-minute order fulfillment.
Dedicated Capacity
Aircraft or dedicated-capacity planning for outsized, high-volume, exceptional or extremely time-sensitive movements that do not fit normal scheduled service. Good for: Large, urgent, or specialized cargo requiring dedicated aircraft capacity.
Temperature-Controlled
Coordinated air movements for temperature-sensitive commodities, with handling requirements reviewed before booking and connected across the relevant handoffs. Good for: Food and beverage, pharmaceutical shippers, and floral exporters/importers.

how it works
How Nuvotrade manages Air Freight.
Deadline Review

Flight Routing & Space Booking
Available gateways, connections and service levels are compared and space is booked against the chosen route.
Pickup & Export Documentation
Cargo pickup and required shipment information are coordinated before the airline cut-off to reduce avoidable airport delays.
Airport Handling
The shipment is tendered, screened and accepted for carriage, then monitored through departure and any planned connection.
Arrival & Customs Coordination
Arrival information is shared with the appropriate clearance parties so release can be prepared around the flight schedule.
Final-Mile
Delivery
After release, delivery is arranged to the consignee, distribution point or final business location.
