Dangerous goods, flown on a dedicated aircraft
Scheduled passenger and cargo services often restrict dangerous goods or need long lead times. A JFC charter flies your consignment on its own aircraft, direct to the airstrip you need — so critical batteries, gases, chemicals and consumables reach site fast.
Tell us exactly what you need to move. We’ll confirm how it can be carried for your item, quantity and route before the aircraft is loaded.
