Car batteries shipped to Canada via a custom-arranged freight charter

With decades of experience in international air freight charter and a global network of partners, ProAir helps companies reliably organize even the most demanding transportation tasks.

In the international automotive industry, reliable supply chains are crucial. If urgently needed components are not delivered on time, this can have far-reaching consequences for downstream processes. This makes it all the more important to have transportation partners who can react quickly and develop suitable solutions, even within tight time frames.

One freight forwarding client faced just such a challenge when they needed to transport vehicle batteries to Canada on short notice for a German automaker. The solution: a custom-organized freight charter with ProAir Cargo & Logistics.

From the inquiry to the scheduled departure in about a week

There was only about a week between the initial inquiry and the scheduled departure. This timeframe required both a quick response and careful planning.

The ProAir Cargo team handled the arrangements for a suitable cargo aircraft for the transport from Frankfurt-Hahn to Canada. This involved optimally coordinating the cargo’s requirements, available aircraft capacity, and the specified schedule.
Especially when it comes to vehicle batteries, not only dimensions and weight but also the relevant transport and safety regulations play a crucial role. A careful review of the requirements and the selection of a suitable air freight solution are essential components of the preparation.

Customized Solutions Instead of Standard Transports

This assignment exemplifies why our specialized cargo charters play a vital role in international industrial logistics. Not every shipment can be easily integrated into existing air freight routes. Particularly for time-sensitive shipments or those with special cargo requirements, a custom-organized charter flight offers additional flexibility in planning and execution.

For ProAir, the customer’s specific transportation requirements are therefore always the top priority. From selecting the appropriate aircraft to coordinating with the partners involved and organizing the flight, the individual processes are carefully aligned. The result is a transportation solution tailored to the cargo, the schedule, and the client’s specific requirements.
