Jet Freight Services is the use of air transportation for delivering goods rapidly and effectively, especially when time is critical. These services are critical for businesses that rely on speed, including healthcare, electronics, aircraft, and luxury retail. Jet freight ensures that vital products, such as vaccines, machine parts, or urgent documents, arrive at their destination promptly, typically within 24 to 72 hours. The speed of jets, along with the accuracy of flight schedules, provides an unrivaled solution for achieving tight delivery deadlines.

Jet Freight Services in CargoWise are managed by built specifically modules that handle the entire air freight process, from booking to delivery. Freight forwarders can create the best flight routes, generate House Air Waybills (HAWBs), communicate with international airlines, and track cargo progress in real time. CargoWise also improves regulatory compliance, unifies customs clearing operations, and allows for proper freight cost allocation. These systems enable logistics operators to maintain speed, visibility, and compliance across international air freight networks.
