Next Day Air Freight

Reliability You Can Plan Around

Next Day Air is our scheduled, guaranteed air freight product for shipments that must arrive on the next business day. We book your cargo on specific departures with confirmed space allocation, eliminating the uncertainty of standby bookings.

Unlike economy air freight where space is offered subject to availability, Next Day Air includes a confirmed booking with the carrier, your cargo will not be offloaded to make room for higher-priority freight.

Next Day Air, FAQs

Standard (economy) air freight is booked on a space-available basis, your cargo may be rolled to a later flight if the aircraft is full. Next Day Air includes a confirmed, priority booking so your cargo is guaranteed to travel on the specified flight and arrive by end of the next business day.
If the standard cut-off is missed, we escalate to our Express Lift team who will look for the next available flight, including late evening departures. In most cases we can still achieve next-day arrival by routing through a connecting hub.
Next Day Air works for shipments from a single envelope up to several tonnes. Larger or out-of-gauge shipments may require a wide-body or freighter aircraft, which we factor into the booking and transit time. Contact us with your dimensions for a precise confirmation.
The next-business-day guarantee applies Monday to Friday (excluding public holidays). Weekend departures are available but delivery is committed to the next working day in the destination country. We operate 24/7, call us and we will confirm the exact schedule.
