Air Freight
When timing matters, our airfreight service gets your cargo moving fast – with no surprises along the way. We’ve built long-standing relationships with major airlines, consolidators and ground-handling agents to make sure your shipments are routed efficiently and cleared without unnecessary delay. From time-critical imports to sensitive exports, we handle every stage with precision – documentation, collection, airport handover, customs entry, and delivery to final destination.
Our team monitors your shipment throughout its journey. If a flight is offloaded, delayed, or re-routed, we’re already working on the next available option and communicating updates to you in real time. You won’t have to chase anyone for answers – we stay on top of it until your cargo is released and delivered.
We also take care of airfreight packaging requirements, dangerous goods compliance, and cargo insurance coordination where needed. Whether you’re moving high-value electronics, perishable samples, or essential parts for urgent repairs, we make sure it’s properly documented, packed, and cleared through customs without hassle.
We know that airfreight is often the last step in a tight supply chain – so accuracy, timing and follow-through matter. You can rely on Pronto to get it done with the same care we’ve built our reputation on for over 35 years.

Success Story: High-Stakes Freight for High-Speed Sailing
Pronto Clearing proudly handled the Cape Town leg of the prestigious Volvo Ocean Race over multiple editions, ensuring time-critical shipments arrive safely and on schedule.
One standout moment was when we were tasked with the arrival of the iconic ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ yacht. Flown in on a chartered Antonov cargo aircraft, it was a massive logistical undertaking – and one we delivered with precision. From liaising with international handlers to coordinating ground clearance and oversize offloading, we ensured that the yacht was race-ready the moment it touched South African soil.
Whether it’s a world-class racing yacht or time-sensitive commercial cargo, we have the experience, network, and capability to get it airborne and delivered without delay.
