Air freight for dangerous goods
Scheduled and chartered air freight for regulated cargo under the ICAO Technical Instructions and IATA DGR, including Class 1 and Class 7.
In short
Air is the mode with the tightest acceptance rules and the least tolerance for a documentation error. It is also the only answer when the cargo is time-critical or the half-life is short.
What governs it
The ICAO Technical Instructions set the rules and the IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations are how the industry applies them. On top of that sit each carrier’s own variations and each state’s, and both can be stricter than the baseline. Several Class 1 divisions may not travel on passenger aircraft at all, and cargo aircraft availability is the practical constraint.
What we arrange
- Carrier acceptance checked against state and operator variations
- Shipper’s declarations and air waybills
- Cargo aircraft routing where passenger aircraft are excluded
- Charter where scheduled capacity will not take the cargo
- Airport handling for regulated cargo at both ends

Send the cargo, the two ends of the lane and the date. If we cannot move it ourselves we will tell you who can — same day.
