How is chargeable weight calculated in air freight?

Airlines compare the shipment's actual gross weight against its volumetric weight (typically Length x Width x Height in cm divided by 6000 for air cargo, subject to carrier tariff rules) and charge based on whichever figure is higher.

Can hazardous chemicals or lithium batteries be sent via standard air freight?

Restricted items, aerosols, flammable liquids, magnetised materials, and lithium batteries are strictly governed by civil aviation security and IATA Dangerous Goods rules. Such items cannot move as general air cargo without full prior disclosure, MSDS documentation, and explicit airline acceptance.

Do you coordinate pickup from Delhi and Gurugram towards Delhi Airport?

Yes. Subject to shipment dimensions and readiness timing, we coordinate surface pickup from commercial locations across Delhi, Mahipalpur, Dwarka, Udyog Vihar, and Gurugram for handover at cargo terminals.

Time-Sensitive Cargo Movement

When Air Freight Makes Commercial Sense

When long-distance road transit or ocean vessel sailing schedules cannot meet a production deadline, exhibition date, or buyer commitment, air freight offers rapid airport-to-airport transit across India and international trade gateways.

PP VELOCITY WORLDWIDE SHIPPING coordinates domestic and international air cargo bookings through commercial carrier networks—helping shippers prepare accurate airwaybill details, verify package dimensions against aircraft hold limits, and plan first-mile pickup from factories or warehouses in Delhi NCR and beyond.

Suitable Business Use Cases

Urgent machine replacement parts and automotive line-stop components
Commercial export samples, apparel collections, and high-value electronics
Domestic priority stock replenishment to Mumbai, Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Kochi, and Guwahati
Time-critical B2B consignments with strict buyer delivery windows

Commercial cargo aircraft parked on runway ready for freight departure

Cargo Details Required for an Air Freight Quote

Because aircraft hold capacity is priced on both weight and cubic space, providing accurate measurements upfront prevents re-quoting at cargo terminal scales:

Origin city/PIN and destination city/airport
Exact commodity description (confirming whether batteries, magnets, liquids, or powders are present)
Number of cartons, crates, or pallets
Individual package dimensions (Length × Width × Height in cm) and gross weight per piece
Whether airport-to-airport or door pickup/delivery is required
Commercial Invoice value and E-Way Bill / export documentation readiness
