Aviation freight or air freight is the transportation of goods by aircraft. It is the fastest method of shipping, ideal for high-value, time-sensitive, or perishable items like electronics, pharmaceuticals, and express parcels. While more expensive than sea or rail freight, air freight offers speed, global reach, and reliability. It typically involves smaller shipments and requires careful handling, security checks, and customs procedures. Due to its high fuel consumption, it has a larger environmental impact per ton compared to other transport modes.
