Air Travel Courier Services

A air travel courier service is a company that helps businesses ship packages all over the world cheaply and overnight by using the cargo space normally allotted to passengers.

They do this by hiring couriers - anyone over the age of 18 with a valid passport--to fly to spots around the globe. Although couriers give up their space in the cargo hold (you can't check any of your bags), they can still have two small carry-on pieces of luggage. The advantage to the courier is that he or she can get incredibly low rates on airfares to Europe, Australia, South America, Asia, Africa...almost anywhere. You do not have to transport the cargo yourself; the courier company handles that. All you have to do is carry a copy of the manifest with you.

You can easily save 50% or more on fares by traveling as a courier. And sometimes, if you're willing to travel at a moment's notice, you can travel for free! To become a courier, it helps if your personal schedule is very flexible, you don't mind traveling light, and you have a taste for adventure. You can learn more about the advantages and possibilities of air courier travel by reading Mark Field's The Courier Air Travel Handbook.
