Aircraft parts
Small spare parts, components or technical items that need personal and direct delivery to the consignee.
AOG Hand Carry
AOG On Board Courier for urgent aircraft parts.
When an aircraft cannot return to service as planned because a part, document or technical component is missing, the transport path has to be clear and direct. OnBoardCourier24 supports aviation-related hand-carry missions from Frankfurt, around 15–25 minutes from Frankfurt Airport (FRA).
A mission is confirmed only after availability, route, shipment, documentation, timing, customs and entry requirements have been reviewed.
Aircraft on Ground
Personal hand carry instead of standard freight lead time.
AOG situations often need a very direct solution: a suitable part, tool, document or small technical component has to reach the destination quickly and with clear handling. This is where an On Board Courier can be useful when the shipment is suitable for personal hand carry.
Before acceptance, I review whether the shipment can realistically move as hand carry. This includes departure options from FRA, possible connections, handover points, dimensions, weight, documents, airline requirements and destination-side constraints.
The service is focused on personally accompanied courier movements. Heavy, restricted, dangerous or insufficiently documented goods may be declined or require another transport solution.
Typical AOG requests
For time-critical aviation-related small consignments.
Final suitability always depends on the exact content, documents, route and applicable regulations.
Tools & technical components
Selected tools, measuring equipment or parts, provided they are suitable for transport, security and customs handling.
Documents & releases
Urgent documents, certificates or accompanying paperwork that require personal handover.
Mission data
What speeds up an AOG feasibility review.
The more complete the initial details are, the faster it is to check whether personal hand carry from FRA is useful and realistic.
Part & reference
Description, part number, serial number, quantity, condition and whether the item is new, used, repaired or moving as a sample.
Dimensions & handling
Pieces, weight, outer dimensions, packaging type, seal numbers and notes for sensitive technical components.
Documentation
Commercial invoice, packing list, certificates, releases, HS/EORI details and consignee-specific requirements.
Route & deadline
Earliest pickup, latest handover time, preferred airport, final delivery address and local contact details.
Before acceptance
AOG is urgent, but not every shipment is automatically hand-carry suitable.
Aviation-related parts need an honest pre-check. A fast route only helps if the shipment, documents and destination handover are workable in practice.
OnBoardCourier24 is not a regulated agent, freight forwarder or cargo-screening provider. Physical screening, dangerous-goods classification and customs declarations remain with the responsible parties and the customer.
Especially important
- no unclear or incorrectly declared contents
- dangerous goods, batteries or restricted items only after explicit review
- realistic pickup, check-in time and customs/entry requirements
- clear handover to consignee, technician, handling agent or plant contact
Process
Review first, then confirm clearly.
Speed matters in AOG cases, but a clean feasibility review is essential. Acceptance is not automatic; it follows a personal review of the operational situation.
Mission details
Pickup, destination, requested handover time, shipment content, dimensions, weight and documents.
Routing & feasibility
Flight options, connections, entry, customs, handover process and time window are reviewed.
Confirmation & execution
After written confirmation, the hand-carry mission is performed with updates along the agreed workflow.
Frankfurt / FRA
From Frankfurt for international AOG routes.
The short way to Frankfurt Airport (FRA) provides a strong starting point for international hand-carry requests. Depending on the route, direct flights or suitable connections may be considered.
Clear pickup timing, complete shipment details and realistic destination-side requirements are especially important. This keeps the mission professionally manageable and traceable.
