Air freight from Greece to the world, and back to Greece
We send parcels, personal items and goods by air from Greece all over the world, and the other way round, through the DHL and FedEx network. Pickup from your door, export customs clearance handled by us, delivery to the recipient.
Air freight is the fastest way for a parcel or goods to reach another country. Spourgitis works with the DHL and FedEx networks on a regular basis: we collect from anywhere in Greece and, through our partners, from the sender abroad, and we deliver to the recipient’s door. If you left something at an airport in Greece and have already flown, see the airport lost and found courier.
When is air freight the right choice?
- When it is urgent— the express service is the fastest option for every destination.
- For distant destinations— the USA, Canada, Australia, Asia, where road transport does not reach.
- For parcels and small loads— where the weight and the volume are smaller than a move.
- For delicate items— fewer transfers and a shorter journey.
How much does air freight from Greece cost?
The cost is set by the destination, the weight and the volume of the shipment. For light but large boxes the volume counts, and the calculator takes this into account automatically. For parcels you see the exact amount in the cost calculator before you commit. For pallets and large loads, ask for a quote.
For the USA the air service has the same price for every state.
How long does air freight take?
It depends on the country, the city and the service, express or economy. You see the delivery date together with the price, before you book the shipment.
Customs and insurance
For countries outside the European Union the shipment goes through customs clearance. We handle the export customs clearance from Greece together with our partners. You declare the contents and the value. For olive oil in private air shipments to the USA, the recipient pays no customs clearance cost. Every shipment abroad has basic insurance, with optional extra cover for valuable items.
Import into Greece: Before you proceed with your order, please ask our partner customs broker, Ms Koulouri, about the customs clearance charges you will be asked to pay in Greece, by phone on +30 210 7105982 or by email at koulouris@athenscustoms.gr.
What can't you send by air?
