What is international air freight?
International air freight can get a bit technical, but it doesn’t have to. Simply put, International Air Freight is designed for shifting larger consignments (posh word for parcels), all over the world without breaking the bank.
Why use Mission Despatch for your international air freight?
Firstly, we work with a number of wholesale agents that provide bespoke international air freight services, all of which specialise in specific countries, so you get a “local” service literally anywhere in the world.
Secondly, our pricing is extremely competitive Vs going direct with a main international integrator.
Thirdly, we make all collections using our own vehicles, and we ensure all international air freight service shipments are properly packaged prior to despatch. Furthermore, we don’t just “ship and forget”, we monitor your shipment from door to door.
How long does air freight take?
Much depends on where it’s going of course, however, international air freight transit times are generally around 7-10 days (subject to customs clearance).
Is international air freight the right service for me?
Possibly, possibly not. However, no need to worry, we will advise the best service to suit your requirement. In fact for large deliveries into Europe we recommend our European Road service as road is by far cheaper than by air.

REVIEWS
We have been using Mission Despatch for over 11 years, that alone is testament to how good they are.
Why?
They take care of all our deliveries, same day. Overnight and international air freight. The team are always helpful and friendly and on the very rare occasion there has been a problem it has been sorted out very quickly.
The benefits
The Mission overnight service opened up a whole new customer base to us. We were traditionally a local printer but now anyone in England can order from us and we can deliver next day, which meant we were able to compete with the Web based printers who took a lot of our Market.
The bouns
As we got bigger we found the Mission Fulfilment service a great bonus for us, finding some one who could store and send out our work meant we could use our space more efficiently , great when you are paying London rates.
Over the last 12 years we have been using Mission Despatch for all our Sameday and International air freight.
Why?
They have been very reliable and always there to help out where they can. Although they have an online booking service being old school its always nice to phone up and make the booking. I do like getting the Booking Confirmation, Proof of collection (POC) and Proof of Delivery (POD) as often Client’s phoning up chasing and I have great pleasure telling them exactly who and what time it was signed for without even bothering Mission for the answer. From Office control to the drivers are always very polite.
Why we love them
As a Company we have grown and you could say its with the help of Mission to be able to deliver and keep our reputation right at the top.
