Be mindful of potential delays during the East Asia Rainy Season (May-October), as heavy rainfall can disrupt cargo handling and inland transport. Secure vessel space well in advance of the China Golden Week (October 1-7) to avoid congestion and slowdowns. Anticipate increased transit times during the peak typhoon months (June-November) and adjust schedules accordingly. Additionally, account for the impact of Lunar New Year disruptions (late-January to mid-February) on factory output and logistics availability. Always allow for extra buffer days to accommodate these seasonal challenges.

Airlines have limits on how much dry ice is allowed per package and per shipment, and labels must show the net weight of dry ice and UN1845 markings. Most experts recommend checking carrier and destination rules in advance and combining dry ice with insulated packaging to keep reefer cargo at temperature while staying within dry‑ice limits.
Standard cargo policies may restrict coverage for temperature-related loss on Perishable goods and Frozen goods.

You can sometimes mix chilled food and Frozen food in the same load, but only if your container or vehicle can maintain separate temperature zones. Fresh produce typically needs temperatures above freezing, while frozen food must stay well below zero. If only one temperature setpoint is available, best practice is separating them into different temperature-controlled shipments to avoid freezing Fresh produce or partially thawing frozen items.
Fresh and frozen food must be maintained at appropriate temperatures throughout the air freight process to prevent spoilage. This includes using temperature-controlled packaging and ensuring that the aircraft has the necessary refrigeration capabilities during transport.
