Why Ship By Air
If you need your vehicles shipped overseas quickly, air freight is the fastest shipping method. Compared to shipping by ocean which can take weeks, your car or motorcycle is only a flight away from its destination. However, vehicles are still required to clear customs which can delay shipments unless documentation is cleared prior to departure. Talk to us about how we can help expedite your vehicle shipments using air freight.
How Much Does Shipping a Car By Air Cost?
Airfreight is the more expensive method to ship a car overseas. Typically costs are at least 2-3 more than shipping in an ocean container. Rates are measured based on vehicle size. The cost of shipping small cars such as Porsche 911s by plane can be just a few thousand dollars. Contact us today using the form above to get a detailed quote on shipping your vehicles by air.
