Express delivery to Turkey: in person by air courier

Sending important documents to partners in Istanbul? Need to urgently deliver a gift to family in Antalya or a unique production sample to Izmir? When every minute counts and the cargo requires utmost attention, traditional logistics companies give up. We know how to solve this problem.

AviaSend is more than just an air courier service. It's a personal air delivery service where your cargo is accompanied by a personal air courier. We don't handle containers or carry commercial pallets. We specialize in urgent shipments that require personal delivery.

Why choose AviaSend for shipping cargo to Turkey?


Turkey is one of the most popular destinations for business and tourism. But standard mail or logistics shipments often turn into stress: cargo gets stuck at sorting centers, gets lost in the commercial flow, or is subject to complex inspection procedures. We offer a different approach—one of care and speed.

We transport only what's truly valuable:

  • Documents and contracts for negotiations;
  • Fabric samples, fittings, and jewelry samples;
  • Gifts and personal items for loved ones;
  • Gadgets and spare parts for equipment;
  • Unique items that require careful handling.

How we work: simplicity and reliability

Working with AviaSend is as transparent as possible and free of bureaucratic red tape.

  • Request: You submit a request on the website or contact us in any convenient way. We record the cargo parameters, the exact address in Turkey, and the desired pickup time.
  • Air courier pickup: At the appointed time, our employee arrives at your office, home, or other designated address. They accept the shipment, inspect its contents, and record its appearance. From this point on, the shipment becomes your personal responsibility.
  • Flight: Your shipment is not placed in the general baggage hold unattended. It is carried by our air courier in the aircraft cabin. The courier accompanies it throughout the entire journey, from your doorstep to the recipient's door.
  • Personal delivery: Upon arrival at the destination, the courier contacts the recipient and personally delivers the shipment. The recipient can inspect the contents and take photographs. No lockers, parcel terminals, or leaving your belongings with neighbors.

Express delivery to key cities Turkey


We deliver to the country's largest business and tourist centers. We provide the fastest possible delivery to the following cities and their suburbs:

  • Istanbul: The financial heart of Turkey. We deliver contracts to offices on the shores of the Bosphorus.
  • Ankara: For efficient work with government agencies and business partners in the capital.
  • Izmir: A major industrial and commercial hub in the Aegean region.
  • Antalya: An ideal solution for tourists who have forgotten important items at their hotel or for sending documents to the consulate.
  • Bursa: A major industrial hub where speedy delivery of samples and components is essential.

What we DO NOT do


We are honest about our limitations because they are the key to our reliability and your peace of mind.

🚫 We DO NOT transport commercial shipments. We're not interested in pallets of consumer goods. We don't want your letters and gifts lost in a pile of bulk consumer goods. We only take items that fit in carry-on or passenger luggage.

🚫 We DO NOT handle customs clearance of cargo. This is key! We deliver cargo as a personal shipment or documents to an individual. No customs brokers, long delays at the border, or unexpected duties for the recipient. Your shipment crosses the border with the air courier, as their personal property. And this is completely LEGAL!

Speed ​​and Control


Delivery time depends on flight schedules, but on average, the Moscow-Istanbul route takes less than 24 hours. You always know where your shipment is. After handing it over to the air courier, we provide their contact information and keep you in touch via messaging apps.

Questions and Answers (FAQ)

Do you need a contract, original documents, or an important shipment to arrive in Turkey tomorrow? Regular mail isn't an option, and shipping companies promise delivery in 5-7 days? Contact AviaSend.

How long exactly does delivery from Moscow to Istanbul or Antalya take?

We work with the next available flights. On average, delivery from Moscow to major Turkish cities (Istanbul, Ankara) takes 8 to 18 hours from the time the shipment is received. Delivery to Antalya or Izmir can take up to 12 hours, depending on the schedule of direct flights and the frequency of our air courier's transfers. We will provide a precise delivery time after confirming the details, as we always rely on the closest flight to deliver your cargo as quickly as possible.

How is the cost of air courier delivery calculated?

The cost is based on several factors: the airline fare for our air courier ticket, the departure and destination cities in Turkey (for example, delivery to Istanbul may be cheaper than to more remote regions), and the cost of labor. We do not use complex volumetric and weight coefficients, as with commercial cargo. The price is calculated individually and transparently – mainly per piece (bag, box, package with documents). Leave a request, and we'll give you a precise price.

What cargo do you absolutely not carry on board?

Since our courier transports cargo in the aircraft cabin as carry-on or checked baggage, we comply with aviation security regulations. We do not transport weapons, ammunition, flammable liquids, gases, toxic and corrosive substances, or narcotics. We also do not carry perishable goods without special certification and, of course, any items prohibited by Russian and Turkish law. If you have any doubts about your cargo, please check with a consultant; we are always happy to help.

How can I track the location of my shipment?

Unlike traditional postal services or shipping companies, we provide not just a database number, but personalized support. After handing over your shipment to the air courier, you will receive our employee's contact information via messenger (WhatsApp/Telegram). We keep you updated at every stage: "the courier has departed," "the courier has landed in Istanbul," "the courier is on its way to the recipient." You're always in direct contact with the person delivering your shipment.

What should I do if the recipient can't meet the courier at the appointed time in Turkey?

That's the advantage of personal delivery! Our air courier is always in direct contact with the recipient. If plans change, we'll simply coordinate a new meeting time for the same day or the following morning (depending on the courier's schedule in the city). We don't leave cargo in random locations, so it's important that the recipient stays in touch.

Do I need to handle the cargo declaration and pay duties myself?

No, this is completely out of the question. This is our fundamental difference. Your shipment is handled as personal property or as documents of an accompanying person (air courier). We do not process the cargo as a commercial shipment, so the recipient in Turkey does not need to go to customs, hire a broker, or pay duties. This is a seamless, hand-to-hand delivery.

Do you deliver to smaller cities in Turkey besides Istanbul and Antalya?

Yes, we deliver throughout Turkey. In addition to the five largest cities (Istanbul, Ankara, Izmir, Antalya, Bursa), we deliver to Adana, Konya, Gaziantep, Kayseri, Mersin, and other towns. There is only one requirement: availability of a flight to the desired city or the nearest major transport hub, from where the air courier can travel by ground transport.

How is AviaSend different from express mail (DHL, FedEx, EMS)?

The main difference is the cargo route. With express mail, your package passes through several sorting centers, where it can get lost or delayed. Our air courier personally transports your cargo, not mixing it with thousands of other parcels. For large companies, your document is just a unit of trade, but for us, it's the most valuable asset. Plus, we eliminate the headache of customs clearance, as we transport everything as personal belongings.

What should I do if my flight is delayed or canceled?

We always monitor flight status in real time. In the event of force majeure (flight cancellation), the courier promptly contacts the sender and recipient to agree on a plan of action. As a rule, we rebook the ticket on the next available flight with another airline, as we bear full responsibility for the delivery. These are the risks we assume.

What is the maximum weight and size of cargo you can accept?

Since our air courier flies in the aircraft cabin, we adhere to airline carry-on and baggage allowances. Typically, this is one piece weighing up to 20-23 kg, with the sum of its three dimensions not exceeding 158-200 cm. If your cargo is heavier or larger, this doesn't mean we can't help—we'll simply send two couriers or arrange for it to be carried in checked baggage, but with the same personal escort principle. Please clarify the details, and we will find a solution.
