Airfreight/ Air freight

Freight transported via passenger or cargo aircraft, typically for expedited or express handling. An example would be a cargo plane transporting perishable goods from one location to another. Air freight can be split into two categories: general and special cargo. General cargo refers to high-value items such as electronics, while special cargo could be livestock needing temperature control.
