Air Freight
Direct access to a world of air transportation
IATA and Regulated Agent approved air freight services
Being fully registered with the IATA European Air Cargo Programme allows us to negotiate best air freight forwarding rates on your behalf and book air cargo directly with over 200 scheduled airlines.
CTS has full IATA intermediary status meaning we can book your air freight directly with over 200 scheduled airlines. CTS also holds accounts with charter brokers, allowing us to find and book charter aircraft at short notice when scheduled services are unsuitable.
Our Regulated Agent Screener status not only enables CTS to transport and store your Secure ‘known’ SPX cargo, but also delivers the ability to x-ray screen your Unsecure ‘unknown’ cargo ready for shipping by air; in compliance with all UK and EC aviation security legislation. Find out more about how your organisation can benefit from our Regulated Agent status here.

- Offer a rapid-response service so we can act quickly and cost effectively
- Use our expertise to avoid unnecessary delays or complications, alerts or security/compliancy breaches
- Maintain a low profile at all times
