Each airline has different air freight rates

Cheap buyer always take bad meat


Air freight rate does matter in air cargo business
Air freight rates are very important for any airline to catch cargo business from international destinations. If rates of airline suit to the clients they will work with them otherwise move to any other source or towards any other airline that offers cheap rates. So in cargo business whatever whether you use air cargo, road cargo or sea cargo rates are very important to catch the clients. Cheap rates mean good business.
Quality of cargo service is also a factor
Cheap cargo freight rates means not good and standard services rendered to the clients all the time most of less rate offering companies damage your cargo due to lack of professionalism, proper arrangements and qualified staff, so don’t go always for cheap freight rates, the standard of services make the difference in rates . Good services mean high rates and low rates mean sub-standard services. A famous proverb can depict the whole story of these cheap rate offering companies as “Cheap buyer take always bad meat”.
Direct cargo approaches are always costly than connecting cargo flights
Direct cargo flights are always with a little bit high rate due to its direct approach to the prescribed destinations.

Connected flights and transit flights are cheaper than the direct flights but there are some fruits and plus points of direct cargo flights  such as shifting and shuffling in the connected flights and transit flights cargo goods may get damage or lost but in direct flights the loss factor and damaged ratio is very low
Each airline definitely touches its home stations so keep in mind this point while booking your cargo in any airline
Each and every airline has to touch its mother airport during connecting flights or indirect flights, so while you are going to book some cargo in connecting flights keep this point in your mind and then plan your route masterly.
