Route into Omaha

Eppley Airfield serves Omaha directly, with transatlantic connections generally routed via Chicago or another major Midwest hub before a short final leg into the city. Our couriers check live options at booking to find the fastest routing.

What we hand-carry to Omaha

Omaha is a national centre for finance and insurance, home to major investment and insurance groups headquartered in the city, and we regularly hand-carry contracts, compliance paperwork and financial documents that need a verifiable chain of custody. The city is also a hub for agribusiness and rail logistics — one of the country's largest freight railroads is headquartered here — generating demand for urgent technical parts, equipment samples and time-critical trade documentation.

Customs and clearance

Your courier carries full commercial documentation, and we can pre-arrange a US customs broker so the shipment clears the moment it lands.
