DELIVERING PERFORMANCESince 1980
Global business is always fast–paced,
many times complicated and very often
impersonal. But there is one company
in the freight logistics industry that
thoughtfully combines the best of
modern technology and the traditional
values of service, commitment and
quality. We are Airways Freight.
Founded in 1980, Airways has quietly
grown to be one of the most respected
names in transportation. We steadily
expanded our services, our staff and
our global reach every single year since
then—not with flashy promotions or
special one-off discount rates but by
providing our clients reliable, cost
effective cargo solutions time after time.
Airways is a privately held corporation
that began as a local pick-up and
delivery company. Our initial goal was
to develop a more reliable process
within the shipping community.
Through the years we have adapted
those processes to the ever changing
needs and concerns of our customers
and continue to prove that putting their
needs first is the single most important
key to success and longevity.
A HISTORY OF EXCELLENCE
We have built our reputation on time-critical
delivery of every type and size of product known
to man, for companies large and small around the
globe. By whatever means is necessary—using
charter aircraft, hot shot trucks, next flight out;
Airways is well known for its responsive, can-do
attitude.
Whether you need same day, overnight, two
day or time-definite deferred delivery
services, we’ll give you real world
options and help you
make the choice that best
suits your specific requirements. Our resources
are endless—no shipment too small or large, no
freight beyond our capability. And we challenge
you to find a company with a better track record
for safe on-time delivery, especially in the most
demanding situations.
There is no down time in today ’s global economy.
That ’s why we offer you around the clock
availability to our staff, providing up-to-the-
minute status of your shipment. From pick up
to delivery, no one keeps you better informed
than Airways—regardless of your freight ’s origin,
destination or schedule. Utilizing state of the
art tracking systems via satellite, Electronic
Data Interchange (EDI), Internet, and traditional
telecommunications technologies, we constantly
monitor your freight through all phases of the
shipping process—we’re never out of touch with
your vital cargo.
DELIVERING PERFORMANCE
You’ll not find a group of more dedicated, more
enthusiastic or more seasoned freight professionals
anywhere. The group tenure at Airways is truly
remarkable, easily out-distancing the competition.
How do we do it?
Our people are empowered to be leaders, to be
innovative; to do whatever it takes to find a solution
to your shipping issues. They embrace the challenge
of getting your valuable cargo delivered on time,
every time.
At Airways, we act as an extension of your shipping
department—a personal logistics partner you can
count on in the most critical situations. And with
one centralized, integrated operations facility, we
are uniquely qualified to communicate
accurate, timely information to you 24
hours a day, 365 days a year.
Airways’
operations
managers
undergo
exhaustive training in handling the most critical
shipping situations, including dangerous goods
of all k inds. Safety is of paramount importance
to Airways. That ’s why Transportation Security
Administration ( TSA), International Air Transport
Association (IATA) and Department of Transportation
(DOT ) regulations and protocols are placed highest
in priority.
Handling air freight worldwide is where we
began, and our expertise is undeniable—
charters, specially configured aircraft,
oversized cargo planes, next commercial
fl ight out, counter-to-counter, special
air couriers—you name it. But there is
so much more to Airways today than our
name implies.
We ship products every day that require
ground service of all types, and in every
mode of transport vehicle available—flat
beds, FTL/LTL standard trailers, panel vans,
refrigerated, special escorts, single or team
drivers. We will always find the most cost
effective and timely way to safely
transport your goods.
Advanced technology, dedicated
operational expertise, the strength and
stability of our company’s structure—all
contribute to a successful formula for
enhancing your shipping logistics. The
final ingredient is our close network of
skilled freight associates, hundreds of
which are located around the world.
Each is as dedicated to respond to your
needs, and communicate with the same
sense of urgency, as is our corporate
staff. They work in harmony with Airways’
central operations to supervise your
shipments, ensure quality control, and
respond to your unique needs on a timely
and professional basis.
Demand by our domestic client base to extend
Airways’ commitment globally has created
opportunities for our International Division
to enhance our global cargo solutions. As an
IATA Licensed Forwarder, we offer complete
Export and Import Air Services to and from
all markets. Additionally, Airways is an FMC
