Detailed explanation-1: -Perishable goods (such as fruits, flowers, and vegetables) were among the first commodities carried by air. However, such goods deteriorate over time and under extreme temperatures and humidity, and must thus be handled with particular care.

Detailed explanation-2: -Use cable ties, cleats, or bands to attach the flower stems to the box or to an insert inside the box. Make sure the ties or bands are tight enough to keep the flowers from moving around while in transit. Fill the extra space around the flowers with packing paper, newspaper, or other cushioning material.

Detailed explanation-3: -Perishable goods are time and/or temperature-sensitive items. They require fast and safe delivery to maintain quality and effectiveness. Due to a short shelf life and the very particular storage requirements shipping perishable goods by air is a preferred means of transport.
