When it comes to international air freight, there are calculators… and then there’s the calculator:
Since 1991, we’ve been pioneering logistics technology and real-world freight forwarding solutions. And while others were still trying to figure out fuel surcharges and dimensional weight formulas, we had already deployed the world’s first automatic air cargo freight calculator—a full week before 9/11 changed global aviation forever.
Not only were we early. We were first. And we’ve only gotten better.
💪 Why Our Air Freight Calculator Is the Best in the Industry
Let’s break it down. Our calculator doesn’t guess. It doesn’t average. It calculates real-world, up-to-date, airport-to-airport or door-to-door air freight prices with a precision that no other platform delivers.
🚀 Here’s what sets it apart:
Live Air Cargo Pricing:
Real-time rates from major air freight carriers. No placeholders. No “get a quote in 24 hours.” You get your price instantly.
Volumetric vs Gross Weight Logic Built In:
We apply the industry-standard air freight formula:
Cubic inches ÷ 166 = chargeable volume weight
The calculator compares this to gross weight and picks the greater—automatically.
TSA-Certified Expertise:
We were among the first certified Indirect Air Carriers (IAC) by the TSA. That means full compliance, better routing, and secure handling.
Door-to-Airport / Airport-to-Door / Full Door-to-Door:
You select the service level. We compute the rest—including pickup, export documentation, and delivery to your consignee overseas.
Exact Fuel & Security Surcharges:
No surprises at the end. Our calculator integrates carrier-specific surcharges based on real current fuel rates.
📦 Who Uses It?
From e-commerce sellers shipping samples to Europe, to defense contractors moving sensitive goods to the Middle East, to relocating families with urgent personal effects—we’ve handled it all.
Startups, exporters, Amazon sellers, Fortune 500 companies. They trust our air freight calculator because it works.
🌎 Serving Every Major Airport
Whether it’s LAX, JFK, MIA, ATL, or SFO, our calculator maps to hundreds of international airport hubs. Select your origin and destination, enter your cargo dimensions and weight, and we’ll return the exact cost options—in seconds.
