Know which cargo air charter leads are worth inspection time
Every enquiry captures cargo type, weight, and origin-to-destination route, plus departure timing and whether the shipment needs temperature control or a security escort. Shipment manifests and cargo photos come in with the form so your team can size the aircraft before committing yard time.
The exact intake your cargo air charter leads complete
This is the real 6-question guided intake for Cargo Air Charter — the same flow your customers finish before you ever pick up the phone.
What a qualified cargo air charter lead should tell you
Arranging chartered aircraft to move freight or cargo shipments rather than passengers, qualified by cargo type, weight, route, departure timing, and any special handling requirements.
- Cargo Transport
- Approximate Weight Cargo In
- Origin And Destination Locations
- This Cargo Shipment Depart
- Owner Or Authorized Representative
- Cargo Special Handling Such
The questions your team needs answered
Every cargo air charter intake asks these — and why each one matters.
| Question | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| What type of cargo do you need to transport? | Cargo type sets the baseline aircraft and handling requirements, from standard freight pallets to livestock stalls or hazmat certification. |
| What is the approximate weight of the cargo in kilograms or pounds? | Weight determines which aircraft in the fleet can physically carry the shipment and whether a larger charter is needed. |
| What are the origin and destination locations for this shipment? | Origin and destination define routing, permits, and fuel stops, which are needed to price the charter accurately. |
| When do you need this cargo shipment to depart? | Departure timing distinguishes shipments needing an aircraft locked in within days from future-planning enquiries that can wait for scheduling. |
| Are you the owner or authorized representative of this cargo shipment? | Confirming ownership or authorization filters out speculative broker enquiries submitted before the shipment is actually secured. |
| Does the cargo require special handling such as temperature control or security escort? | Special handling needs like temperature control or a security escort determine which crew and aircraft configuration can take the job. |

Built for cargo air charter workflows
| Cliont capability | Cargo Air Charter application |
|---|---|
| Weighted lead scoring | Weighs cargo type against departure timing so a perishable shipment needing a 48-hour turnaround scores differently than an oversized-equipment request with a flexible timeline. |
| Conditional handling flags | Surfaces shipments that need temperature control or a security escort so operators route them to crews and aircraft equipped for that handling, rather than discovering it after quoting. |
| Ownership verification | Captures whether the submitter is the cargo owner or an authorized representative, flagging broker or third-party enquiries for a verification step before yard time gets scheduled. |
| Structured document and photo capture | Collects shipment manifests and cargo photos alongside the free-text weight and route fields, giving ops enough detail to size the aircraft before the first call. |
Common cargo air charter lead scenarios
Perishables needing fast departure
A shipper flags perishable goods with a departure needed within 48 hours and confirms they're the cargo owner. The intake surfaces this as a fast-turnaround, high-value enquiry rather than a routine freight request.
Oversized equipment, flexible timeline
An operator requests an oversized or heavy equipment charter but marks the departure as flexible/future planning. This is still a high-value cargo type, just one that doesn't need to jump the queue ahead of time-critical shipments.
Hazardous materials enquiry
A shipment involves hazardous materials, which carries a lower weight than other cargo types in the scoring model even though it's still captured and routed. Ops can see this flagged early rather than discovering compliance complexity during the call.
Broker submitting on someone's behalf
The person filling out the intake answers 'no' to being the cargo owner or authorized representative, which scores lower than a direct owner enquiry. This tells the team to verify authorization before quoting or scheduling anything.
Livestock shipment with handling needs
A request for live animal transport also flags special handling for temperature control, combining a distinct cargo type with a handling requirement that changes which crew and aircraft configuration can take the job.

Cargo Air Charter lead-intake FAQs
Does the intake treat hazardous materials shipments differently from other cargo?
Hazardous materials is one of the cargo type options, and it carries a lower weight in the scoring model than general freight, perishables, or livestock. It still routes through to your CRM, but the lower score reflects the added compliance and handling complexity rather than disqualifying the lead.
Can the intake handle irregular or approximate cargo weights?
Yes, the cargo weight question is a free-text field, so shippers can enter an approximate figure in kilograms or pounds even if they don't have an exact manifest weight yet.
What happens if the person submitting the form isn't the cargo owner?
The intake asks directly whether the submitter is the owner or an authorized representative. A 'no' answer scores lower than a 'yes,' which flags the enquiry for a verification step before your team commits to scheduling.
How does the intake capture special handling needs like temperature control?
There's a dedicated yes/no question asking whether the cargo needs temperature control or a security escort, so shipments with those requirements are identifiable before ops starts sourcing the aircraft.
How are origin and destination captured for quoting?
Origin and destination are collected as a free-text field, giving ops the routing detail needed to estimate permits, fuel stops, and aircraft range before returning a quote.
How is this intake different from the Group Air Charter or Private Jet Charter forms?
Those subservices qualify passenger counts, seating, and travel dates. Cargo Air Charter instead qualifies cargo type, weight, and handling needs, since the constraint is the shipment, not the traveler.
