Air Freight — Speed When It Matters

IATA-certified air freight
to every major hub

When time is the constraint, Shipmaster delivers. As an IATA-accredited cargo agent, we have direct access to cargo capacity on 80+ airlines operating out of Mumbai, Delhi, Chennai, Bangalore and Hyderabad — including dedicated freighters and belly-hold on passenger aircraft.

We handle everything from urgent courier-level shipments to full charter solutions for automotive, pharma and defence customers. Our consolidation service (LCL-equivalent for air, called groupage) gives small shippers access to direct routes at rates that would otherwise require full pallet bookings.

Common Questions

Frequently asked questions

How is air freight charged — by weight or volume?
Air freight is charged on whichever is higher: actual gross weight (kg) or volumetric weight. Volumetric weight is calculated as Length × Width × Height (cm) ÷ 5,000 for most airlines. Our quote tool calculates both automatically so you always know the chargeable weight upfront.
What is the fastest air freight option from India?
For truly urgent shipments, we offer next-flight-out (NFO) service where cargo departs on the very next available flight — sometimes within 4–6 hours of handover. Standard express air freight delivers within 1–3 days door-to-door to major hubs in Europe, the Middle East and Southeast Asia.
Can you ship pharmaceuticals and cold-chain cargo by air?
Yes. We are trained in IATA CEIV Pharma standards and operate GDP-compliant cold chain procedures. We use temperature-validated passive and active containers (2–8°C, 15–25°C, -20°C) and work with airlines that have dedicated pharmaceutical handling lanes.
What air cargo documentation is required from India?
You need: Airway Bill (AWB), Commercial Invoice, Packing List, Shipper's Letter of Instruction (SLI), Export Declaration (ICEGATE Shipping Bill), and any product-specific certificates. For DG cargo, we also prepare IATA DGR declarations and MSDS sheets.
Do you handle oversized cargo by air?
Yes — for OOG or oversized cargo that cannot fit in standard ULDs, we coordinate freighter charters or main-deck bookings. We have charter solutions for heavy machinery, aircraft components, and industrial equipment requiring nose-loading freighters.
