Your package flies with our courier
AMS Direct provides on-board courier (OBC) services worldwide. Our courier personally accompanies your shipment as hand luggage on a commercial flight and delivers it directly at the destination.
No cargo hold. No sorting centres. No handling by unknown parties. Your shipment stays with our courier from pick-up in Amsterdam to delivery at the final destination — anywhere in the world.
Why on-board courier?
Standard air freight passes through cargo terminals, sorters and multiple handlers. An on-board courier eliminates every one of those steps.
Never out of sight
Your shipment travels as hand luggage with our courier on a commercial flight. It never goes into cargo hold, never passes through a sorting centre, never changes hands.
Same day departure
We book the first available flight the moment you confirm. Our courier can be at Schiphol and in the air within hours of your call.
Worldwide
Anywhere a commercial flight goes, our courier goes. Europe, North America, Asia, the Middle East — no destination is off limits.
Personal delivery
Our courier hands the shipment directly to the recipient at the destination. You receive a timestamped photo receipt as proof of delivery.
