When a shipment absolutely has to arrive quickly, safely and on a predictable schedule, air freight is usually the fastest way to get it there. In this guide, we walk through how it works, what it involves, and when it makes more sense than sea freight.
We arrange air freight from the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany to destinations across the globe, covering everything from pallets, boxes, machinery parts and spare parts to electronics, computer chips, high-value cargo, commercial goods and urgent shipments of every kind.
Car shipping by air freight is a major part of what we do, particularly for luxury cars, sports cars, supercars, classic cars, collector vehicles and other high-value vehicles that need to reach their destination fast.
Time is usually the deciding factor. Ocean freight still makes sense for large, less urgent shipments, but the moment cargo needs to arrive within days rather than weeks, air freight tends to be the better option.
Our air freight service can include:
- Pickup from your location
- Inland transport to the airport
- Air freight booking
- Export documents
- Customs documentation
- Airport handling
- Cargo insurance
- Dangerous goods checks when needed
- Worldwide air freight
Most shipments are collected in Rotterdam, Amsterdam, Schiphol Airport, Eindhoven, Venlo, Tilburg, Breda, Utrecht and The Hague, with additional pickup available from Antwerp, Brussels, Ghent, Liège and Charleroi in Belgium, and Düsseldorf, Cologne, Frankfurt, Hamburg and the surrounding regions of Germany.
The Middle East is one of the most common destinations for urgent air cargo — think Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Doha, Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam, Kuwait City, Muscat and Bahrain — alongside regular shipments to Africa, Asia, North America, South America and other worldwide destinations.
Starting a shipment is simple: send the pickup address, cargo details, dimensions, weight, photos, cargo value and destination, and we assess the best air freight solution and manage the export process from there.

Car Shipping by Air Freight: Luxury Cars and Fast Delivery
Shipping a vehicle internationally? Air freight is one of the fastest methods available, and it is the option most customers reach for when a car needs to arrive quickly and be handled with care along the way.
Air freight suits luxury cars, sports cars, supercars, classic cars, collector vehicles, electric vehicles and other high-value cars particularly well. Many customers use this service for vehicles going to the Middle East, including Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Doha, Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam, Kuwait City, Muscat and Bahrain.
Speed is the headline benefit. Depending on the route, airline availability, airport handling and customs process, a vehicle can often arrive at the destination within only a few days.
The process starts with simple information:
- Pickup address
- Vehicle make and model
- Vehicle dimensions and weight
- Photos
- Destination airport or city
- Cargo value for insurance
After we receive the details, we check the best air freight option. We can arrange vehicle pickup, inland transport to the airport, export documents, customs documentation, airline booking, airport handling and cargo insurance when requested.
For high-value cars, cargo insurance is strongly recommended. This can be arranged as part of the shipment, so the customer does not need to arrange it separately.
For electric vehicles or vehicles with lithium batteries, extra checks may be required before airline acceptance. We check this before booking, so the export process stays clear.
Car air freight is not the cheapest shipping method, but it is one of the best options when speed, safety and professional handling are more important than price.

If the shipment contains lithium batteries or battery-powered devices, extra airline checks may be needed. Not every battery shipment can move the same way, so we check the cargo details before booking.
The customer only needs to send the pickup address, cargo description, number of boxes or pallets, dimensions, weight, photos, cargo value and destination. We check the best air freight option and arrange the export process step by step.

Dangerous Goods, Special Cargo and Cargo Insurance by Air Freight
Some air freight shipments need extra checks before they can be accepted by an airline. This can include dangerous goods, special cargo, high-value cargo, oversized cargo, sensitive equipment or shipments with batteries.
Dangerous goods can sometimes move by air freight, but only when the cargo is allowed by the airline and prepared according to the correct air cargo rules. Not every dangerous cargo shipment can be accepted, so the details must always be checked before booking.
Dangerous goods air freight may include certain batteries, chemicals, aerosols, paints, equipment with batteries, electric vehicles or other regulated cargo.
For this type of shipment, we may need:
- Cargo description
- MSDS / safety data sheet when applicable
- UN number when applicable
- Packing details
- Number of boxes or pallets
- Dimensions and weight
- Photos
- Destination
- Cargo value
- Required documents
Special cargo can also include fragile goods, sensitive electronics, machinery parts, high-value products, exhibition goods, luxury items and urgent commercial cargo. These shipments may need careful handling, correct packing and clear documentation.
Cargo insurance can be arranged for many air freight shipments. This is especially useful for luxury cars, computer chips, electronics, high-value cargo, machinery parts and urgent commercial shipments.
The process stays simple for the customer. Send us the pickup address, cargo details, documents, dimensions, weight, photos, cargo value and destination. We check the air freight options, airline acceptance and export requirements.
If the shipment can move by air freight, we arrange pickup, airport handling, export documents, customs documentation, airline booking and air freight to the destination.
