Why Volume Matters as Much as Weight
When shipping air freight from Guangzhou to Malawi, airlines charge based on whichever is greater: the Actual Weight or the Dimensional (Volumetric) Weight. Space inside a plane is limited.
The Formula
Airlines typically use this calculation:
(Length x Width x Height in cm) / 6000 = Volumetric Weight in KG.
