ABOUT US

KeyAir are IATA approved cargo agents and we have been offering repatriation services for over 20 years. In 2003 we created our own repatriation division and began to negotiate with airlines for reduced repatriation rates. At that time we joined SAIF, NAFD and FIAT IFTA, and have enjoyed tremendous support through the years from these industry bodies. We have relied largely on word of mouth to promote our services, and we appreciate the long-term loyalty of the many funeral directors we serve – see Testimonials.

Our team has an extensive knowledge and a profound understanding of the processes and requirements for international repatriation. Our commitment to the funeral industry is recognised by air service providers, and we frequently receive referrals from airlines.
