Viacha earns a posting because of what LPB can do on a bad day. 6 nonstop destinations and 3 carriers give the desk somewhere to rebook when a flight goes, and 22 minutes of driving gives you time to make the replacement. Redundancy is why Viacha gets called and a city with one thin airport does not.

What the work pays
The fee for an assignment is agreed with you in writing before you accept it. These are the figures the site publishes, and what the desk covers on top of them.
Top published feeAED 2,000The highest fee the site shows for a single assignment: sealed medical samples in a cooled case, Dubai to Singapore.
Published band, per assignmentAED 900 to 2,600A document pouch to London is AED 1,200, an aircraft part to Frankfurt AED 1,500, an escorted watch on the Berlin lane AED 1,800.
What the flight costs youAED 0The desk books and pays the ticket, the transfers and, where the routing needs it, the hotel. A courier never fronts the fare.
The one payment you makeAED 199, returnedThe Academy, paid once. It comes back in full on top of the fee for your first completed assignment. Applying itself is free.
Fees vary with the lane, the notice, the waiting time and whether the return is immediate, so the desk quotes each assignment individually rather than pretending one number fits every trip. You are self-employed and there is no minimum: accept or decline whatever you like, and declining costs you nothing. Earnings are paid per delivery by bank transfer, they appear in your courier portal, and you can request a payout once the balance reaches AED 200. Apply and see the flight board.

How to start, in four steps
1
Apply once
One application covers every country desk. Tell us which passports you hold and where you can travel.
2
Verification and the Academy
Identity and background check, then a short course on customs, handovers and chain of custody.
3
Your first offer
The desk sends the routing, the dates and the fee in writing. You accept or decline, nothing is automatic.
4
Fly, hand over, get paid
Collect, board, clear customs in person, hand over against signature, and the fee is paid to your account.
The assignment
You are not carrying freight out of LPB, you are carrying one item as your own accompanied baggage in the cabin, under a written agreement. The routing is built for the specific trip and sent to you before you accept it. From Viachthe ground leg is 21 km, and the desk allows for traffic rather than assuming the map is right.
Getting to the aircraft from Viacha
Every timing on this page comes off one measurement: 21 km of road between Viacha and LPB, 22 minutes at an ordinary speed. Straight line distances are not used here, because couriers do not fly to the airport.
The ground leg from Viacha barely counts as one. 22 minutes to LPB means the desk can ring you and still make a departure the same evening. A single gate serves Viacha. When LPB has no suitable departure the assignment waits or goes to another city, which is worth knowing before you join the list.
| IATA | Airport | By road | Driving time | Nonstop |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| LPB | La Paz / El Alto El Alto | 21 km | 22 minutes | 6 |
Viacha is a city of 86,000 people in La Paz Department, and the clock there runs 8 hours behind the Emirates all year. Road distances are measured driving routes rather than straight lines, and nonstop counts come from the scheduled route data this site publishes.
What LPB reaches without a change
Reach, measured properly. LPB serves 6 airports without a change, across 3 countries, and the routes with real frequency are the ones a courier in Viacha is actually sent on.
| IATA | City | Airport | Frequency | Operators |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| VVI | Santa Cruz de la Sierra | Santa Cruz de la Sierra Viru Viru | about 9 departures a day | 2 operators: LATAM |
| CBB | Cochabamba | Cochabamba Jorge Wilsterman | about 6 departures a day | 1 operator |
| BOG | Bogotá | Bogotá El Dorado | about one departure a day | 1 operator: Avianca |
| CIJ | Cobija | Cobija Capitán Aníbal Arab | about one departure a day | 1 operator |
| CUZ | Cusco | Cusco Alejandro Velasco Astete | about one departure a day | 1 operator: Avianca |
| UYU | Quijarro | Quijarro Uyuni | about one departure a day | 1 operator |
Counting every airport a courier in Viacha can drive to, the combined nonstop board is 6 airports. Frequencies are average daily flights and change with the season, so the desk checks the live schedule before it offers you anything.
What moves out of Viacha
The site holds no public industrial map for LPB, so this section says less rather than guessing. Consignments out of Viacha are typically documents, spare parts, samples and small valuables that missed a cut off.
Why a courier in Viacha is useful to the desk
The reason Viacha has a page is redundancy. When a flight cancels the consignment does not, and a desk with couriers in Viacha as well as the big hubs has a second person who can reach LPB and take the rebooked departure.
There is no nonstop between LPB and the Emirates, and the page is not going to pretend otherwise. LPB has no convenient path to the Emirates in the schedule data this site publishes, so assignments here are usually regional or run on a routing the desk builds by hand for the specific trip.

The engagement, and who we are looking for
The engagement
- Type: freelance, self-employed. You are an independent courier accepting individual assignments, not an employee, and you decide which ones you take.
- Where it runs: assignments are flown out of LPB, between Bolivia and wherever the consignment is going, with the return leg agreed per mission.
- Hours: variable. An assignment is a single trip, not a shift or a roster.
- How you are paid: a fee per completed assignment, agreed in writing before you accept it. The fees published on this site run from AED 1,200 for a document pouch to AED 2,000 for a cooled medical consignment, and the figure for your assignment reflects the lane, the notice, the waiting time and whether the return is immediate.
- What the desk pays: the flight, the transfers and, where the routing needs it, the hotel. A courier never pays for the ticket and never fronts the fare.
- Applying is free. No payment is required to apply, to be screened or to be placed on the courier list. The Academy costs AED 199, paid once, and is returned in full on top of the fee for your first completed assignment. It is the only payment a courier ever makes to us.
What we look for
- A passport with comfortable remaining validity and free pages, and the right to enter the country on the routing. The desk checks the visa position for your specific passport before any assignment is offered.
- A clean background check and a willingness to be verified. Couriers carry other people’s property.
- Availability at short notice, and a realistic view of the 22 minutes drive to LPB. Most assignments are confirmed hours, not days, before departure.
- Presentable, calm and articulate at a customs counter. The consignment is only as smooth as the person carrying it.
- A working phone, reachable on the number you gave us, for the whole assignment.
What we provide
- The ticket. Always. A courier never pays for the flight and never fronts the fare.
- The paperwork, prepared before you reach LPB, and a named contact at the desk on both ends.
- A briefing on the consignment, the consignee and what the customs position at the far end looks like.
- A fee per completed assignment, agreed with you in advance and paid by bank transfer after the handover.
Questions about the Viacha list
01How far is Viacha from LPB?
21 km, about 22 minutes by car from Viacha. The desk works backwards from the bag drop at LPB, so the time it asks you to leave will look conservative and is meant to.
02What can I reach from Viacha without a change of aircraft?
LPB serves 6 airports nonstop across 3 countries with 3 operating carriers, and counting every gate a courier in Viacha can drive to, the combined nonstop board is 6 airports. That is the practical range of a single assignment from here before anybody has to connect.
03Getting from Viacha to the Emirates: nonstop or not?
LPB has no convenient path to the Emirates in the schedule data this site publishes, so assignments here are usually regional or run on a routing the desk builds by hand for the specific trip.
04Do I have to live in the UAE to be on this list?
No. OnBoard Courier is a UAE company and the desk is in Dubai, but the courier list is worldwide. Living in Viacha, 22 minutes from LPB, is a qualification rather than an obstacle.
05Does it cost anything to apply?
Applying costs nothing and always will. A courier on the Viacha list makes exactly one payment to us, the AED 199 Academy, and gets it back in full with the fee for the first assignment they complete.
06How is my fee agreed?
The desk sends the routing, the timing and the fee for that specific assignment in writing. You accept or decline it. Nothing is deducted or charged without your written agreement.
Apply to fly out of LPB
If 22 minutes to La Paz / El Alto El Alto sounds like a normal drive to you, the desk would like your name on the list.
