Eating vegetables plays a significant role in our health. However, for organic vegetables, especially for pregnant women, they are more nutritious because vegetables are also important for the fetus. Countless vegetables are flown in from all over the world every day. So, what should I pay attention to when shipping vegetables by air?

1. Weight [The weight of a shipment, as air freight has tiered rates, where the larger the volume, the cheaper it is. There is one rate for shipments under 45KG, another rate for shipments over 45KG, yet another rate for shipments over 100KG, and some air freight companies even apply a different rate for shipments over 300KG]

2. The departure station and destination (specificity and flight density are important determinants of airline prices. Flights on less popular routes are relatively expensive, such as the very high price of flights from Guangzhou to Lhasa, which cost over ten yuan per kilogram. However, flights from Guangzhou to Beijing, which have a high flight density, are much cheaper, with a price difference of several times)

3. Regarding the time efficiency requirements for air transportation of vegetables, when is it required to be delivered? There are two main points to consider for air transportation of vegetables: first, the packaging of the vegetables, and second, the selection of flight times. Depending on the type of vegetables, it is advisable to use packaging boxes with good rigidity to prevent squeezing during transportation. Some vegetables that are prone to deformation and damage from squeezing should be separated and filled with foam in between. For some vegetables, to preserve freshness, ice packs can be added inside and packaged in a foam box on the outside.
