At GRM Global Trans, we make sure to provide you with a transparent and customized quote that is tailored to the specific characteristics of your shipment. As authorized IATA agents, we have competitive rates and a wide network of international correspondents, which allows us to optimize costs and delivery times to guarantee an efficient and reliable service.Requesting an air freight quote allows you to accurately plan your logistics operations and make informed decisions for your business.

Basic charges for quoting an air freight Unlike sea freight, quotes for air freight are usually simpler. Everything is usually quoted as a single package, as opposed to the more detailed options found in ocean freight. Typically, the freight option is chosen, which is billed based on the weight in kilograms of the cargo. However, different types of surcharges may also apply: Fuel or FSC: Corrects for fluctuations in fuel prices, applying a surcharge as necessary. Currency exchange: A surcharge applies if freight is paid in a currency other than the Euro, usually around […]
