Transit Cargo Coordination

The nine-step transit process that carries general cargo from pre-arrival planning through handling, documentation, security and acceptance to confirmed onward departure.

Process
9 defined steps
Scope
Air & sea arrivals
Reporting
Milestone updates
Overview

Transit cargo fails in predictable places: a connection nobody confirmed, a document the connecting carrier would not accept, an acceptance cut-off that passed while cargo sat on the ramp. Our transit coordination exists to close those gaps before they open.

Every consignment runs through the same nine steps, whether it arrived by air or by sea, and whether it is one piece or a full ULD. You always know which step your cargo is on and who is holding it.

What is included

Cargo information verification

Pieces, weight, dimensions and commodity checked against the documents before the cargo is committed to a connection.

Transit cargo handling

Cargo coordinated through the applicable transit handling process at Velana International Airport.

Security & acceptance coordination

Screening, acceptance and handling requirements verified against the connecting airline rules.

Connection monitoring

The connection watched through to uplift so a missed flight becomes a re-booking, not a discovery days later.

Exception management

When something moves, you hear it from us with the options attached rather than the problem on its own.

Customer & forwarder updates

Milestone updates at arrival, acceptance, connection and departure, in the format your customer expects.
