Global Freight Link handles shipments where arriving late is the same as not arriving. Aircraft on ground, production lines about to stop, clinical trial material, show freight against a load-in time. One desk, open around the clock, and a dispatcher who owns the move until it is signed for.
Aircraft on ground
A grounded aircraft costs tens of thousands of dollars an hour and cascades through the schedule behind it. Our AOG desk is built around that single number.
A vehicle assigned to your shipment alone, driving direct from pickup to the hangar. No terminals, no cross-docks, no consolidation with other freight, no overnight parking.
When wheels beat road, we book the earliest viable lift with our airline and forwarder partners and run our own ground legs on both ends, so the part is not waiting on a local courier at either airport.
We collect from the airline freight counter, handler or bonded facility and deliver straight to the hangar, MRO, FBO or line station, referencing your tail number and work order on the delivery paperwork.
For engines, wing components, landing gear and complete AOG kits where scheduled lift cannot take the piece or the timing does not work.
United States · Canada · Mexico
On an urgent cross-border move, the delay is almost never the driving. It is the paperwork, and it is avoidable.
We prepare and transmit entries while the vehicle is still loading, working with your customs broker or ours, so the crossing is a formality rather than an event.
Beyond aviation
The same desk and the same equipment handle any shipment where the window is the whole job.
Temperature-controlled equipment with continuous monitoring for pharmaceutical, clinical trial and diagnostic material, where the temperature record matters as much as the arrival time. Chain of custody documented end to end.
Tooling, dies, fixtures and production parts moved against a line-stop clock. We quote the recovery plan, not just the transit, because a line-down move usually needs a decision before it needs a truck.
Stage, audio, lighting and broadcast equipment moved to load-in windows, including 28-foot equipment and containers for venues a 53-footer cannot reach.
Sealed trailers, team drivers and no unattended stops for freight that cannot sit in a yard overnight. Technology, semiconductors, data centre hardware and precious cargo.
Before you call
Have these ready and you will have a price, a plan and a driver identified inside thirty minutes. If you do not have all of them, call anyway and we will work it out with you.
24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Call and we will quote on the line.
Questions we get
It depends on the origin. In and around the major freight markets we are typically at the dock within one to three hours of dispatch. Remote origins take longer and we will tell you the honest number on the call rather than the number you want to hear.
Yes. On most AOG moves under roughly 900 miles, a dedicated vehicle beats the airport-to-airport option once you count tender cut-offs, recovery and the local delivery at the far end. We will price both and show you the door-to-door times side by side.
Tell us what it is at the point of quoting. Batteries, oxygen generators, chemical oxygen and flammables all carry restrictions that change the routing, and it is far cheaper to plan for that at the start than to discover it at the counter.
The dispatcher who takes your call. They own the shipment until it is signed for, and you get a direct number rather than a queue.
Signed proof of delivery, photographs and time stamps, sent the same day. Your invoice follows with that paperwork attached.
Yes, regularly. If you are covering a customer of your own we work to your instructions and keep our name off the delivery paperwork where you need us to.
