On-board Courier/Virtual On-board Courier FAQs

Also known as hand-carry shipment, an Evolution Time Critical On-board Courier moves and accompanies your consignment – be that a parcel, package or high-security documents – on a scheduled passenger flight.

Evolution Time Critical’s virtual On-board Courier service is a cost-saving alternative to an onboard courier. With Virtual Onboard Courier, we check your consignment into the baggage hold on a scheduled flight, rather than the cargo hold.

Virtual Onboard Couriers offer reliability: where a cargo hold consignment can be offloaded, baggage hold items are rarely offloaded. VOBC is faster than air cargo and more cost effective than a traditional onboard courier. This delivery mode is limited to individual airline baggage hold dimensions.

On-board and Virtual On-board couriers are limited to the individual baggage hold dimensions of the airline. However, Evolution Time Critical uses couriers that have 5* rating, meaning they often have enhanced baggage allowances.

Our logistics experts will work to select the right courier, ticket and flight for your project. We can also organise for multiple couriers where needed, for larger baggage allowances.

Evolution Time Critical can arrange for the repackaging of consignments in order to meet baggage allowances.

All of Evolution Time Critical’s solutions are bespoke, so get in touch with our logistics experts to discuss your project requirements.
