Is the customs paperwork different for airfreight compared to truck and boat? Or is it that airfreight can get to destination without transiting through EU?

I assume EU paperwork will be the same no matter mode of transport - usual paperwork differences between air & sea eg airway bill v bill of lading

EU customs paperwork has changed significantly. Faisal Islam of the BBC put on Twitter that what was previously a 1 page export form for Scottish sea food going to the EU is now pages long and 26 individual points need to be met for the form to be accepted.

That's a lot of metal, I take it a Skycargo 747F would be out of the question owing to lack of unloading equipment at GLA ?
SkyCargo only have 777Fs now too

I'm sure if Dnata wanted an unloader for 777Fs, they would get one.....

I was never part of that team being the opposition team 787/359 ;) :lol: . Mind you I did meet sneak once at the start of my shift. Hope all as good as it can be at GLA and hoping for better times and blue skies ahead. Missing my own job and my AY, KL, DY, QR, TOM
Fights and gates and folks I worked with.
