On a Tight holiday deadline? Try our General Cargo Express Service

During the holidays, perhaps more than any other time of year, meeting deadlines is essential.

Holiday shipments are critical for yearly profits, and what businesses need now is a reliable transportation partner that not only understands your bottom line, but also offers solutions to any last-minute shipping needs you may have.

At Amerijet, we understand how valuable your time is. That’s why businesses have come to rely on us if they need a fast solution for any last-minute shipments. Amerijet offers an effective, time-sensitive service called General Cargo Express (GCX).

For businesses fully aware that a rush of orders can come in at the last-minute, requiring fast shipments before the holidays are over, GCX is the perfect solution.

What is Amerijet’s GCX service?

Amerijet’s Air Freight Cargo shipping service connects 627 destinations airport-to-airport worldwide. Throughout the year, this is ideal for businesses that rely on international transportation solutions for general dry freight of any size, type or weight in single packages, on pallets or skids, in containers or crates, or for consolidated air cargo shipments.

Amerijet’s General Cargo Express (GCX) shipping services is ideal for automotive manufacturers or original equipment manufacturers, since GCX can ensure your vehicle parts arrive at the assembly plant as quickly as possible.

A study by the site Inbound Logistics — which provides the latest news about warehousing, logistics, supply chain management, transportation, cargo, freight and shipping – indicates that delayed shipments from suppliers can shut down a manufacturer’s entire assembly line. That’s why automotive manufacturers rely on an express shipping company they can trust to deliver supplies to their manufacturing plants on time, every time.

The solution for time critical shipments is to have reliable expedited service available, any time of year, with little to no advance notice. Amerijet’s GCX service is the optimum express airfreight service for airport-to-airport shipments, because GCX accommodates packages of all sizes. Amerijet ships both domestically and internationally, and our online booking capabilities make it easy to electronically confirm your shipment reservations and expedite the process.

Amerijet’s GCX service guarantees the transportation of automotive shipments on our next available flight, even in times of an emergency. Businesses have come to recognize that their shipments stay on schedule thanks to Amerijet’s fast and efficient GCX service.

Who benefits from Amerijet’s GCX service?

Around the holidays, there are more reasons than ever why companies come to rely on expedited air services. For one thing, as last-minute holiday orders come in, businesses find themselves facing a tight deadline. Likewise, manufacturers may be facing a critical deadline to replace one or more parts.

Retailers, medical equipment and service providers, production companies and manufacturers also rely on expedited services of all-cargo airlines.

Another reason you may need GCX is because you’re shipping perishables. Shipments that are temperature-controlled—such as pharmaceutical products, fruits, meats and seafood — should always be transported using refrigerated storage and expedited services.

A vaccine or other biologic may need to be shipped to meet an urgent health care need. What these companies want is a carrier providing cool chain practices to ensure safe handling.

Express air eliminates the risk of lost business opportunities or financial losses if your products don’t make it on the shelves on time or if a possible delay stops your production line. Both situations can cost a business thousands, if not millions, of dollars.

Amerijet International is a Miami-based all-cargo carrier, and our GCX service is available for airport-to-airport expedited shipping in the U.S. and worldwide.

In addition, Amerijet has a super-premium service, Rush Expedited Service (RSX), which is available for international shipments that are delivered to its Miami International Airport hub at least 2 hours prior to flight departure. Your freight is guaranteed to move on the next available flight.

Both Amerijet services accept most types of small packages and cargo, with the exception of liquids.

What are some of the perks of using GCX?

Whether you’re handling a big holiday rush of orders, expecting a delivery from your original equipment manufacturer, or shipping machinery and vehicle parts to an automotive manufacturer, Amerijet’s GCX service has you covered.
