At Pacific Coastal Airlines, we understand that every cargo shipment is unique and deserved the right level of care, speed, and reliability. That’s why we offer three distinct cargo services levels – Guaranteed Cargo, Priority Cargo, and Standby Cargo – designed to meet a wide range of logistical needs. Whether you’re shipping time-sensitive goods that require confirmed space and on-time delivery, looking for a flexible yet fast option, or seeking a cost-effective solution for less urgent cargo, our tailored cargo services ensure your business stays on schedule and on budget. Discover the right fit for your cargo with Pacific Coastal Airlines trued air cargo solutions.

 

Guaranteed Cargo

Our premium air freight solution designed for shipments that demand absolute reliability and time-definite delivery. With confirmed space booking on your chosen flight and prioritized handling throughout the shipping process, this service ensures your cargo moves exactly as scheduled—no delays, no uncertainties. Ideal for urgent, high-value, or time-critical shipments, Guaranteed Cargo comes with dedicated support, end-to-end tracking, and delivery assurance backed by service-level commitments. When it must be there on time, every time, count on Guaranteed Cargo to deliver with confidence.

If weather, or safety concern, causes delay or cancellation of a flight, your cargo will be transported on the next available flight. If a delay or cancellation of a flight is within our control, and you choose to ship your cargo anyway, you are entitled to a rebate of the difference between Guaranteed Cargo and Standby Cargo rates.

Human remains and shipments of exceptional value must be shipped as Guaranteed Cargo on a prepaid basis only. Please note that due to specific shipping requirements, transportation of human remains must be booked through a funeral home. The maximum weight accepted for a human remains shipment is 250 lbs on a very limited basis (most bases are restricted to a maximum weight of 140 lbs), please contact our cargo head office at 1-855-615-1381 for more details. For further information please see guidance document on human remains handling.

Priority Cargo

Offers a fast and flexible shipping solution for cargo that needs to move quickly, but without the rigid scheduling of a guaranteed service. With elevated loading priority over Standby Cargo shipments and expedited handling at every stage, Priority Cargo strikes the perfect balance between speed and value. This service is ideal for businesses managing tight timelines or high-volume shipments that require dependable transit times without the premium cost of a guaranteed option. When you need to move cargo swiftly and securely, Priority Cargo is your reliable choice.

The following commodities are required to be shipped as Priority Cargo: blood shipments, emergency medical supplies, vaccines, cremated human remains, live animals (except tropical fish and insects), and firearms.

Live animals must be prepaid and have a $150 (plus GST) minimum charge. For further information about transporting live animals click here.

Standby Cargo

Our most economical air cargo option, designed for shipments with flexible delivery schedules. Cargo booked under this service is transported on a space-available basis, after customer baggage, Guaranteed Cargo and Priority Cargo have been loaded, making it an ideal choice for non-urgent goods where cost savings are the top priority. While transit times may vary, you’ll still benefit from our provincial cargo network, professional handling, and standard tracking services. Standby Cargo provides a cost-effective way to move cargo without compromising on the quality and care Pacific Coastal Airlines is known for.
