Air Seychelles cargo launches shopping box service

Published on : Friday, January 30, 2015

air-seychelles-logo-300x65Air Seychelles Cargo has launched the Seychelles Box – a dedicated air freight service for sending personal belongings from the United Arab Emirates (UAE) to Seychelles.

The new service allows customers to send personal items and gifts up to 20 kilos to Mahé for as little as SCR 2,798, with larger packages up to 50 kilos starting at SCR 3,728. There are no limits on the number of boxes that may be booked per person.

Manoj Papa, Air Seychelles’ Chief Executive Officer, said: “I am pleased to launch this new service, which makes it much easier for Seychelles residents who shop regularly in the UAE to bring more luggage home in a cost-effective, fast and efficient manner.

“Personal items and gifts for family and friends can be sent conveniently on any day of the week thanks to the 13 weekly flights we operate with our partner Etihad Airways between Abu Dhabi and Seychelles.

“In addition, customers who are booked on one of our flights have the flexibility of choosing to travel with their Seychelles Box or sending it to Mahé unaccompanied.”

The service is currently available in Abu Dhabi and Dubai and may be rolled out to other destinations in the months to come.

 

In Abu Dhabi customers are required to drop off their Seychelles Box in person at Export Counter 417 at Abu Dhabi Cargo Terminal located at Abu Dhabi International Airport.

Customers in Dubai can place a booking via partner agency Asia Express (tel: +971 4 336 96 66), who will arrange for a courier to deliver a Seychelles Box to a specified Dubai address, pack and weigh its contents, seal the box and deliver it to Air Seychelles.
