HomeServicesAir Freight to the United States | Ammerican

Air freight when the calendar is the constraint.

Airport-to-airport or door-to-door service from the main cargo hubs of Asia, Europe and Latin America into LAX and other U.S. gateways, with customs cleared on arrival.

Options

Standard air. Consolidated or direct, typically a 3-to-7-day door-to-door window depending on origin and routing.

Priority air. Next-flight or fixed-schedule uplift for urgent production parts, launches and shortfalls.

Sea–air. Ocean to a hub, then air to the U.S., when you need something between the two.

How air is priced

Air freight is charged on chargeable weight: the greater of actual gross weight and volumetric weight (length × width × height in centimetres ÷ 6,000 per piece). Light, bulky cargo pays for its volume; dense cargo pays for its weight. Our quote shows both figures so you can see which applies.

What is included

  • Booking and uplift through TSA-approved indirect air carrier partners
  • Pickup, export handling and security screening at origin
  • Air waybill and arrival documentation
  • Customs entry through licensed broker partners, with pre-arrival filing where possible
  • Delivery from the airport to your door, a fulfillment center or our warehouse
  • Flight-level tracking
