Next available flight
Freight moved on the next suitable commercial or cargo flight.
Overview
Not every urgent shipment needs its own aircraft. If a scheduled commercial or cargo flight is going your way soon, placing the freight on it can be a practical middle path between a normal booking and a full charter.
We look for the next suitable flight on your route, check that the shipment fits the aircraft and the carrier's rules, and arrange the booking. We tell you the timing, what the carrier will accept and what documents are needed. If no scheduled flight works, we say so and, if you wish, quote a dedicated aircraft instead. Specialist cargo is arranged only through approved partners.
This option suits shipments that are urgent but flexible about the exact aircraft. If your shipment is time-critical to the hour, we will say so and compare it with a dedicated aircraft, so you can choose with the full picture.

Questions we often hear
How is this different from a cargo charter?
A charter gives you a dedicated aircraft. This option places your freight on a flight that is already going.
Are there limits on what can be carried?
Yes. Carriers set limits on size, weight and contents. We check them against your shipment before booking.
What if there is no suitable flight?
We tell you, and if you want we quote a dedicated aircraft.
