Frequently Asked Questions
Express Air Service (Transit Time: 1-3 days): Direct flights without any layovers — the fastest option for time-critical cargo.
Standard Air Service (Transit Time: 4-7 days): One or two stops along the way, where cargo switches planes or shares space with other shipments, balancing cost and speed.
Deferred Air Service (Transit Time: 8-12 days): Involves multiple stops en route to the destination — the most cost-effective for less urgent shipments.
When speed, security, or global reach are business-critical, such as for dangerous goods, temperature-controlled, or high-value shipments.
When it comes to air freight shipping, carriers will charge by either volumetric weight (dimensional weight) or actual weight. If the volumetric weight exceeds the actual weight of the product, the volumetric weight becomes the chargeable weight. The cost of air freight is also determined by the shipment's origin, destination, and cargo density. Other fees include airline terminal handling fees, customs clearance fees, and delivery charges to the customer’s warehouse.
Document requirements vary greatly based on the type of commodity, country of origin, and US Customs Requirements. Please contact a Silq expert to understand the documentation requirements that might apply to your shipment.
The transit time of a shipment greatly depends on the cargo specifications and the frequency of flights on the requested shipment route. For international shipments from, say, Shanghai to Los Angeles, air shipments can take as little as 1 day. That’s in contrast with an FCL shipment that might take >30 days for the same journey.
