What Is Air Express Shipping?
How Air Express Works for Small Parcels & Boxes
Air express shipping connects senders with global courier networks. Parcels are picked up from your location, processed through export customs, flown to destination hubs, and delivered directly to the recipient - typically within days.
Key Features of Air Express vs. Air Freight
While air freight is ideal for large cargo, air express provides priority handling, door-to-door delivery, and real-time tracking. It's the preferred method for smaller, high-value, or time-sensitive shipments that require faster customs clearance.
Best Use Cases for Air Express
- Urgent business documents: Export contracts, corporate paperwork, or legal filings.
- Small parcels & boxes: Product samples or personal items needing quick delivery.
- Courier Services: Quick international deliveries available.
- Cross-Border Ecommerce Orders: Essential for online sellers shipping to neighboring markets, North America, Europe, Middle East or Asia.
