Air freight at Amar exists so our customers never have to open a second relationship for an urgent shipment. Production line down, season launch at risk, replacement parts grounded — we move it by air through our carrier and consolidation partnerships, clear it through our customs desk, and put it on an Amar truck at the airport of arrival.
We contract uplift through established airline and consolidator partnerships, which keeps our customers’ rates competitive without locking them to a single carrier’s network or a single carrier’s bad week.
Economy and deferred air on consolidated services from principal gateways worldwide, for freight that needs to beat the vessel without paying for a direct.
Time-definite direct uplift for the shipments where the transit is the entire point and the cost of waiting is measured in shifts.
Movements where the transit is the whole point, planned against the cost of waiting rather than a rate sheet.
Cold-chain uplift for product that cannot travel by water and cannot travel warm.
IATA DG certified, with documentation, packing verification and carrier acceptance handled on the same file as the freight.
Secured handling and chain-of-custody control for high-value shipments through to delivery.
Most importers hold an ocean forwarder and, separately, someone they call when things go wrong. That second relationship starts cold every time: new file, new paperwork, no history, and a customs broker meeting your commodity for the first time on the worst possible day.
At Amar the air shipment is the same file, the same file owner, the same customs desk and the same delivery fleet as the ocean freight it’s rescuing. Switching modes is a decision, not an onboarding.
Weight, dimensions, gateway and required delivery date in; pricing out within one business day, broken out by leg.
Space secured through our airline and consolidator partnerships, matched to the transit the shipment actually needs.
Entry filed by our own CBSA-licensed desk under Licence No. 3416, so release isn’t waiting on a third party.
Onto an Amar truck at the airport of arrival and through to your door — the same final mile as every other Amar file.
Partner with a logistics provider that combines global reach with real operational control across North America.

Three to six days on consolidated services; one to two days on direct uplift, subject to space and customs release.
Both. Door rates include delivery on Amar equipment from the airport of arrival, and customs clearance through our own clearance desk.
If the cargo hasn’t sailed, yes — and because it stays on the same file with the same owner and the same customs desk, the switch is a routing decision rather than a new relationship.
Yes. DG shipments are handled with the documentation, packing verification and carrier acceptance managed on the same file as the freight.
Yes. Air is available standalone, though most customers use it as the urgent lane alongside a contracted ocean programme.
Send us a lane, a commodity and a volume. A pricing analyst responds within one business day with pricing broken out by leg — ocean, customs, rail, drayage and storage — so you can see what each stage costs.
