Aerospace & Aviation
Shipping Insurance
Because you're not just shipping - you're safeguarding precision, performance, and trust.
You’re shipping turbine blades, navigation systems, or FAA-regulated components — often with a delivery window that can’t be missed.
One cracked case, delayed landing, or lost part can ground operations, break contracts, and cost millions.
ShipSimple delivers specialized aerospace insurance, with coverage up to $250,000 (Parcel) $500,000 (Freight), trusted by suppliers and manufacturers who can’t afford errors.
Shipping Aerospace & Aviation Components Shouldn't Feel Like Turbulance
Eliminate The Risk
You’re shipping components worth thousands – sometimes millions – and every shipment carries weight far beyond its dollar value. One delay, loss, or impact can ground operations and damage client trust. Standard carrier coverage isn’t built for aerospace-grade risk, ShipSimple is.
The Risk:
❌ Lost or stolen shipments with no reimbursement
❌ Damaged pieces, missing stones, or scratched watches
❌ Complex, slow claims processes
❌ Insurance that doesn’t understand luxury
