Throughout the years we have added supplementary lines to our linehaul service, such as full truckload operations (Truckload Services), final‑mile coverage (Complete® Cartage), and an Airline Logistics program, and we will continue to expand our services to meet the changing needs and growth of our customer base. Forward Air is structured to optimize both savings and service to our customers. Direct partnerships with owner‑operators and other surface transportation providers, enable us to remain cost‑competitive. The Forward Air network is designed with over 90 facilities located at or near major U.S. and Canadian airports, 12 regional sort centers and over 300 beyond points (secondary airports provided through our Complete Cartage service), creating one of the most comprehensive linehaul networks in the industry.
