Shipment answers
Answers Before You Ship Urgent Cargo
What is the fastest way to courier a package domestically in India?
Estimated delivery: 10-16 hours. Hour counting starts from departure of the next available accepted flight, not from pickup. If no flight is available after pickup that day, hour counting starts when the next available accepted flight departs. Waiting before departure is additional; the quotation states the confirmed delivery deadline.
Can I get a package delivered to another city on the same day?
Same-day intercity movement may be possible on a suitable route, subject to readiness, cargo acceptance, flight availability and the destination receiving window. Obtain shipment-specific confirmation before relying on a same-day deadline.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How long does priority air cargo take from Delhi to Mumbai?
Estimated delivery: 10-16 hours. Hour counting starts from departure of the next available accepted flight, not from pickup. If no flight is available after pickup that day, hour counting starts when the next available accepted flight departs. Waiting before departure is additional; the quotation states the confirmed delivery deadline.
Is overnight cargo delivery available for Tier-2 cities?
YES. Overnight delivery to a Tier-2 city depends on suitable air and road connections, acceptance and the receiving location. Share the PIN codes and required arrival time for a route review; next-morning delivery requires specific confirmation.
What is the average transit time for express B2B logistics?
PORTADOR EXPRESS means next or second business day, subject to route, readiness and cutoff review. Urgent movements are assessed under SOS around the next available suitable flight. Ask for the applicable delivery plan for the individual shipment.
What happens if a flight is delayed or canceled?
If a flight is delayed or cancelled, PORTADOR reviews available alternatives and communicates a revised plan. Rerouting depends on suitable flight capacity, cargo acceptance and operational availability; a replacement movement requires confirmation.
Can I get a guaranteed delivery time for critical parts?
NO. Share the required delivery deadline for a feasibility review. A time-definite commitment applies only when expressly confirmed for the individual shipment. Tracking, a quotation or an AWB alone does not create a delivery guarantee.
Do express shipping services operate on Sundays?
YES. Sunday and public-holiday requests are subject to route, cargo and team availability. Confirm pickup, destination receiving hours and the proposed delivery arrangement for the individual shipment before relying on service that day.
What is the late-evening cut-off for next-morning delivery?
Cutoffs are confirmed for each shipment, based on the collection location, cargo-ready time, acceptance process, suitable flight and destination handover. Share the packed-ready time and required arrival to obtain a feasible plan.
What is the maximum weight allowed on domestic commercial flights?
Individual boxes are generally capped at 150 kg for narrow-body aircraft, though larger palletized cargo can fly on wide-body planes.
How do I ship an oversized package urgently?
Oversized packages are routed via wide-body aircraft or dedicated point-to-point express vehicles to bypass standard size restrictions.
Is there a minimum weight requirement for priority air cargo?
NO. There is no minimum weight limit; services handle everything from a 500-gram critical document to multi-ton machine components.
What is the definition of "chargeable weight" in air freight?
Chargeable weight is whichever value is greater between the shipment's actual physical weight and its calculated volumetric weight.
How do I know if my package is considered oversized?
Any package exceeding 120 cm in length or 80 cm in height is generally categorized as oversized by domestic commercial airlines.
Can I ship multiple boxes under a single consignment note?
YES. Multi-piece shipments (MPS) can be booked under a single Air Waybill (AWB) to streamline tracking and billing.
What packaging materials protect high-value cargo best?
Heavy-duty double-walled corrugated boxes, anti-static bubble wrap, and molded foam inserts provide optimal protection.
Are wooden crates accepted for domestic air freight?
YES. Provided the wooden crates are ISPM-15 certified (fumigated/heat-treated) and have clear forklift access points.
How do I prevent shifting damage inside a shipping container?
Use industrial-grade nylon strapping, dunnage bags, and stretch wrap to immobilize the cargo on its pallet.
Can fragile glass components be sent via priority air cargo?
YES. But they must be packed using a "box-in-a-box" method with ample shock-absorbing padding between layers.
Why is emergency air cargo more expensive than standard courier services?
Emergency cargo bypasses consolidation hubs, utilizing dedicated vehicles and premium airline space bookings to prioritize absolute speed over cost.
What is a fuel surcharge in B2B logistics?
A fuel surcharge is a variable fee tied directly to current domestic fuel prices, protecting freight rates from sudden market spikes.
Is transit insurance mandatory for high-value commercial shipments?
NO. While not legally mandatory, transit insurance is highly recommended to protect against unpredictable loss or damage.
What does "All-Risk" cargo insurance cover?
All-Risk cargo insurance covers physical loss or damage from external causes during transit, loading, and unloading.
