Fly freight with Air Namibia

Almost no country is totally self-sufficient. Every country has the need for logistical support in some form to either import or export goods. Globally air freight services are a great enabler for economic development. It is estimated that the global air cargo industry is accountable for transporting roughly 35% of all international trade. Air Namibia also offers freight transport services. If it fits in a plane, it can be transported and freighted to wherever in the world it needs to go. At Air Namibia, freight services offered include the transport of perishable consignments, live animals, motor vehicles, household goods and other diverse commodities. With experience in handling valuable cargo, dangerous goods, perishable and wet cargo, live animals, weapons, ammunition and explosives, as well as human remains, Air Namibia can deliver it from anywhere in the world through multilateral network partners. Air freight competes with different modes of transport, and each mode has its own benefits and drawbacks. It is often used for high value and low volume shipments. Air Namibia is well positioned to transport your air freight globally. Air freight is the fastest shipping method. When goods need to be moved quickly, air freight is the quickest solution compared to sea freight or road transport. Arrival and departure times of flights are highly reliable, as Air Namibia tends to offer excellent integrity with schedules. Even missing a flight wouldn’t cause much delay as there are multiple flights departing daily. Air Namibia has a large network of destinations that covers almost the entire world through own service or through partnerships with other airlines. As the transportation time for air cargo is comparatively short, the insurance premium is lower. Shipping by air offers the advantage of a high level of security, as the airport safety controls over cargo are tightly managed. Tightly managed airport controls reduce the cargo’s exposure to theft and damage. With the quicker transit times of air freight, you have less need for local warehousing and do not need to keep items in stock. Customs clearance, cargo inspection and cargo handlers are more efficient, as most cargo is cleared within a matter of hours. Normally air shipments require less heavy packaging than for example ocean shipments. Due to the nature of services, Air Namibia plays a vital role in exporting fresh fish, mining equipment, pharmaceuticals or any other item that will not put an aircraft at risk. - Contributed
