About the Johannesburg (JNB) to Hangzhou (HGH) shipping route by air
The air shipping route from O.R. Tambo International Airport to Hangzhou Xiaoshan International Airport is 12,208 km (6,592 nautical miles) along the flight path. The great circle distance between the airports is 11,627 km; airways, departure and arrival procedures add around 5%.
Flight time is about 16 h at 800 km/h block speed. On a route this long many freighters make a technical stop for fuel, so the shipment may land somewhere in between. Door to door air freight transit time is usually 1 to 3 days longer than the flight because of acceptance, security screening, customs and handling at both airports.
We have no direct flight data for JNB to HGH this week. Cargo on such pairs usually connects through a hub, which adds a day or more to the transit time.
Air freight rates are charged per kilogram of chargeable weight: the higher of the actual weight and the volume weight (length x width x height in cm divided by 6,000). Light, bulky cargo pays for space, so compact packing on Johannesburg to Hangzhou saves money. The shipment crosses from South Africa into China, so export and import customs clearance are part of the lead time.
