Air Freight
Horizon Freight delights its clientele by offering superior and versatile air cargo solutions — timely delivery, cost-effective savings options and an exclusive airfreight team that is always accessible to counsel you.
Our all-embracing range of air cargo services covers import, export and consolidation on all major channels out of Colombo and Male. Whether you are chasing a retail cut-off, replacing a broken production part or moving a temperature-sensitive consignment, the team books the space, prepares the airway bill and keeps the shipment moving with the needed momentum, security and precision.
Airfreight is rarely the cheapest option, so we make sure it is the right one. Where the deadline allows, we will tell you when a sea-air transshipment through one of our hubs saves money without missing the date — and where it does not, we say so plainly.

Declared correctly
DGR and IMCO cargo classified, packed, labelled and declared by people who do it every week.
Common questions
How fast can you uplift from Colombo?
It depends on the destination and the airline product you choose. For most Asian, Gulf and European gateways we can put cargo on a flight within one to three days of receiving the goods and clean export documentation, and we will tell you the realistic date before you commit.
Can you handle dangerous goods by air?
Yes. We are specialised in DGR and IMCO cargo handling, including classification, packing check, labelling and the shipper declaration. Send the safety data sheet and we will confirm whether the commodity is acceptable on the intended routing.
Do you offer door-to-door air freight?
Yes — pick-up at origin, export clearance, uplift, import clearance and delivery to the consignee door, including upcountry destinations in Sri Lanka and delivery in the Maldives.
