How air is priced
Air freight is charged per kilogram of chargeable weight: the greater of actual weight and volumetric weight (length × width × height in cm ÷ 6,000). Light, bulky cargo is charged by volume.
| Example | Actual | Volumetric | Charged on |
|---|---|---|---|
| Box 100 × 80 × 60 cm, 40 kg | 40 kg | 80 kg | 80 kg |
| Box 50 × 40 × 30 cm, 25 kg | 25 kg | 10 kg | 25 kg |
