Introduction to Shipping Costs​

When you ship a parcel using AirJIT, the shipping cost is determined by several key factors that ensure fair pricing based on the service provided. Understanding these factors helps you plan your budget effectively before listing your parcel.

Factors Influencing Shipping Costs​

Shipping costs on AirJIT are influenced by:

  • Distance: The farther the destination, the higher the shipping cost. Longer routes incur higher fees due to increased travel time and logistical complexities.

  • Weight: The weight of your parcel directly affects the shipping cost. Heavier parcels require more effort and take up more space, leading to higher fees.

  • Route Complexity: If your parcel requires multiple stops or connections, or if it travels over long distances or oceans, the cost will increase due to additional logistical demands.

  • Airport Complexity: Shipping through airports with stricter security or regulatory requirements may result in higher costs due to the extra time and effort needed for compliance.

  • Customs and Regulatory Complexity: If your parcel requires special customs handling or regulatory compliance, this will also affect the shipping cost.

  • Supply and Demand: Shipping costs may fluctuate based on the demand for parcel shipping on certain routes. High demand or limited travel options can increase costs, while lower demand may reduce them.
