Need goods in Morocco fast? LY2N organises your air shipments from Europe, China, Turkey, the Middle East or Africa to Mohammed V Airport in Casablanca, including pick-up at your supplier, customs clearance and delivery to your premises. Spare parts, samples, high-value products or urgent orders: a few days instead of several weeks by sea.
Our air freight solutions
- Consolidated air freight : your shipment travels with other goods on scheduled flights. The most cost-effective option for parcels and pallets.
- Urgent shipments : booking on the next available flight, for a part that is holding up production or a delivery awaited on site.
- Door to door : pick-up at your supplier, export formalities, flight, customs clearance in Casablanca and delivery anywhere in Morocco.
- Special cargo : dangerous goods (batteries, chemicals), temperature-sensitive or high-value products, on request and subject to airline rules.

How the price is calculated: chargeable weight
In air freight, you pay for the higher of the actual weight and the volumetric weight of your shipment. Volumetric weight is calculated by dividing the volume in cubic centimetres by 6,000 (i.e. 167 kg per cubic metre).
Example: an 80 × 50 × 35 cm carton weighing 21.5 kg has a volumetric weight of 23.3 kg. That is the weight that will be charged. Well-sized packaging can therefore noticeably reduce the cost of your shipment.

Our tips for a hassle-free air shipment
- Insure your goods : an airline's liability for loss is limited and calculated per kilo, often well below the value of a product. Ad valorem insurance covers the real value of the shipment.
- Check the air waybill before departure : an incomplete consignee or a wrong weight delays customs clearance.
- Prepare the import commitment in advance : by air, goods arrive fast and terminal storage charges start quickly.
- Declare batteries and dangerous goods : an undeclared product may be refused at loading.

Frequently asked questions
How long does an air shipment from France to Morocco take?
There are daily direct flights between Paris and Casablanca: once the goods are handed over to the airline, they can arrive the same day. In practice, allow 2 to 5 days door to door, including pick-up and customs clearance.
Air or sea freight: which should I choose?
Air suits light, urgent or high-value shipments. For large volumes or heavy goods, sea freight remains far cheaper, but takes several weeks. We compare both for every request.
How is the air freight price calculated?
The price depends on the origin, the destination and the chargeable weight: the higher of the actual weight and the volumetric weight (volume in cm³ divided by 6,000). Origin and destination charges and customs clearance are added.
Can I ship batteries or dangerous goods by air?
Yes, under conditions: the goods must be classified, packed and labelled according to air transport regulations, with a shipper's declaration. Some airlines refuse certain products. Let us know when you request a quote.
Is my shipment insured?
The air carrier's liability is limited and calculated by weight. To be compensated for the real value in case of loss or damage, we recommend taking out ad valorem insurance before departure.
Do you also ship from Morocco abroad?
Yes. We organise air shipments from Morocco to Europe, West Africa and the rest of the world, including export formalities.
