Loading capacity of common cargo air crafts

Airfreight consignments have to comply with the customs regulations of the country of origin and the country of destination. This is why air freight consignments may only be sent from (or to) airports which have the necessary customs clearance, the so-called "Customs Airports". In the case of doubt we will gladly tell you if the nearest airport to your supplier or sender is a "Customs Airport".
