As global economic activity accelerates, Shenzhen has emerged as a crucial international logistics hub, with growing demand for air cargo services. Many businesses and logistics providers are particularly interested in understanding the costs and available options for shipping goods from Shenzhen to Columbus, Ohio.
Taiwan-based EVA Air has recently released updated flight information for this route, providing clarity for businesses and individuals seeking reliable air cargo solutions.
Flight Schedule and Routing
According to EVA Air's new arrangement, cargo shipments depart from Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport (SZX), transit through Taipei Taoyuan Airport (TPE), and ultimately arrive at Chicago O'Hare International Airport (ORD). From Chicago, goods are transported to Columbus International Airport (CMH) via truck services.
The first leg from Shenzhen to Taipei offers multiple flight options:

Pricing and Additional Fees
EVA Air's quoted rates are denominated in Chinese yuan and include basic fuel surcharges and war risk insurance. However, additional costs such as customs clearance fees and documentation charges are not included and will be billed separately based on actual expenses.
Notably, shipments destined for Indonesia incur an additional customs transmission fee of 50 yuan per Master Air Waybill (MAWB), effective since May 1, 2011. Other potential fees include DEL information charges and ICN/BKK information processing fees, which vary depending on specific circumstances.
Growing Importance of Air Cargo
This Shenzhen-Columbus air cargo service has become a preferred channel for e-commerce businesses and logistics companies due to its efficiency and reliability. With competitive pricing, multiple flight options, and comprehensive service coverage, EVA Air provides a robust solution for cross-border logistics needs.
The expanded service demonstrates the airline's commitment to meeting growing demand in international trade, particularly between Asia and the American Midwest, while offering shippers greater flexibility in their logistics planning.
