Last-minute courier updates on flights departing from London are less frequent. Couriers with internet access can get U.S. courier updates instantly, twice a day. Air Courier Organizational Mission One of our missions as a courier organization is to lobby courier shipping firms to use members of the general public whenever possible as their couriers on overseas courier routes. To achieve this end, we endeavor to provide courier companies with a responsible, professional and educated couriers. By working to help raise courier industry standards, and by acting as a safety net with the courier as a consumer, we actively promote courier travel as an alternative method of transportation to see the world.
Flights depart from other cities on an occasional basis.
Approximately 35,000 roundtrip courier flights will take off from the U.S. in the Year 2000. We track another 40,000 - 45,000 roundtrip courier flights that depart from overseas locations for which American travelers are eligible. The most spectacular growth in new courier routes is to Asia and in and around the Orient. Flights have also increased to South America and from the U.S. to London and from Europe to points outside the continent. Country-to country flights within the continent of Europe dwindled during 1994 due to the easing of international shipping restrictions between European Union countries.
