How to calculate the international air freight from China ?

Air fares are calculated based on the space that the cargo occupies on the plane. 

If you are shipping a large but light shipment that the volumetric weight exceeds the actual (scale) weight, the cost of the shipment is based on the space it occupies on the aircraft. It is an IATA standard method.  Calculation method of volumetric weight by air: length (cm) x width (cm) x height (cm) / 6000
