A2A

A2A - Airport to Airport or D2A (Door to Airport)

The basics:

• when referring to the "airport" we don't mean the baggage conveyor at the airport, but rather a warehouse/cargo terminal in the vicinity of the airport where cargo/freight is received or released to individuals, businesses or transport providers;

• rates are generally based upon 220 lbs / 100 kg of cargo, but even weights as low as 30 lbs can be less than standard door to door parcel service;

• "door" or pickup service can be added to the A2A rate. At destination the recipient can self clear and recover their cargo from the terminal or hire a transport provider or customs agent/broker to perform those services on their behalf;

• a 220 lb A2A rate from the USA to an international air is typically at least 75% less than the cost of FedEx, DHL or UPS International Economy service;
