About the role
An air freight operations assistant helps bookings reach the correct terminal, flight and destination with complete information. Interviewers look for speed with control, accurate cargo documents and clear escalation when space, cut-off times or handling requirements put a shipment at risk.
How to prepare
- Review the air cargo journey from booking and terminal acceptance through uplift and destination arrival.
- Learn the main fields on an air waybill and how they relate to the invoice and packing list.
- Prepare a method for prioritising urgent tasks without skipping checks.
- Think of an example where you gave a quick, accurate update during a delay.
- Review why weight, dimensions, cargo description and handling requirements affect an air booking.
Common mistakes
- Focusing only on flight departure and forgetting terminal acceptance deadlines.
- Treating a confirmed booking as proof that cargo will be uplifted despite capacity and operational checks.
- Sending customers an unconfirmed flight update.
