Terms & Conditions

Contractual obligations on opening an account.

All Flight Logistics Group Ltd business contracted within the United Kingdom is transacted under the current Standard Trading Conditions of the British International Freight Association (BIFA).

Fuel Surcharge

Updated monthly.

Important Information

With generally slower customs clearance and transit times due to the effects of local COVID working restrictions and new, post–Brexit border controls, we felt that this reminder of Dry Ice shipping protocols might be in order due to the time sensitive nature of these packages.

“Just wanted to let you know, my new sunglasses arrived today, they look even better than I imagined! All good! While it is a pity that the UK has left the EU, and I had to take care of the customs payment myself, I must say that communication from you and from the transportation company was excellent, and all worked smoothly. Thank you for the quick processing of my order.”
