One trip, one consignment, one handover. No round, no van, no warehouse. The consignment is sealed before you take it, it stays in the cabin from LIM onwards, and it is signed for by a named person at the far end. From Chosicthe trip begins with 56 minutes of road to Lima Jorge Chávez.
On Board Courier, Chosica
Urgent consignments leave Chosicthe way passengers do: in the cabin, with a person. LIM is 56 minutes from the city and the desk pays for the seat.
OnBoard Courier is a United Arab Emirates company, contracted by ICSL FZE and run from Dubai. A city named on this site is a place we cover and route through, not a separate company in that city. Assignments are contracted under UAE law, and the terms are published in full under legal and policies.
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.
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
Apply once
One application covers every country desk. Tell us which passports you hold and where you can travel.
Verification and the Academy
Identity and background check, then a short course on customs, handovers and chain of custody.
Your first offer
The desk sends the routing, the dates and the fee in writing. You accept or decline, nothing is automatic.
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
A trip out of Chosica has four fixed points: the collection, the 56 minutes drive to LIM, the sector itself and the signature at the far end. Where the routing runs through the Emirates it goes by way of MAD, on one ticket, with the connection booked long enough to be real. Everything between them is arranged by the desk and confirmed to you in writing.
Getting to the aircraft from Chosica
The drive is the honest half of this work. Chosica to Lima Jorge Chávez is 48 km and about 56 minutes, and an assignment is planned backwards from the bag drop rather than from the departure.
A drive in this band, 56 minutes from Chosica, is why the offer arrives with a departure time from your door and not only from the gate. Only LIM is within reach of Chosica at 56 minutes, so the 67 destinations it serves nonstop are what you can be offered. There is no second airport within reach of Chosica to fall back on.
| IATA | Airport | By road | Driving time | Nonstop |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| LIM | Lima Jorge Chávez | 48 km | 56 minutes | 67 |
Chosica is a city of 89,000 people in Lima region, and the clock there runs 9 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 LIM reaches without a change
This is the departure board a courier in Chosica works from: 67 nonstop destinations out of LIM, 28 operating carriers, and average daily frequencies taken from the scheduled route data this site publishes.
| IATA | City | Airport | Frequency | Operators |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| CUZ | Cusco | Cusco Alejandro Velasco Astete | about 49 departures a day | 2 operators: SKY Airline |
| AQP | Arequipa | Arequipa Rodríguez Ballón | about 25 departures a day | 2 operators: SKY Airline |
| SCL | Santiago | Santiago Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez | about 13 departures a day | 3 operators: SKY Airline, LATAM |
| CIX | Chiclayo | Chiclayo Capitan FAP Jose A Quinones Gonzales | about 13 departures a day | 3 operators: SKY Airline |
| PIU | Piura | Piura Capitán FAP Guillermo Concha Iberico | about 12 departures a day | 2 operators: SKY Airline |
| TPP | Tarapoto | Tarapoto Cadete FAP Guillermo Del Castillo Paredes | about 12 departures a day | 3 operators: SKY Airline |
| TRU | Trujillo | Trujillo Capitan FAP Carlos Martinez De Pinillos | about 12 departures a day | 2 operators: SKY Airline |

| BOG | Bogotá | Bogotá El Dorado | about 10 departures a day | 4 operators: LATAM, Avianca |
| CJA | Cajamarca | Cajamarca Mayor General FAP Armando Revoredo Iglesias | about 9 departures a day | 3 operators: SKY Airline |
Counting every airport a courier in Chosica can drive to, the combined nonstop board is 67 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 Chosica
The site does not hold a public industrial file for the LIM catchment, so this page will not invent one. What it can say honestly is that Chosica generates the ordinary urgent traffic every working city generates: signed originals, spare parts, samples and small high value items that missed a cut off.
Why a courier in Chosica is useful to the desk
A courier in Chosica shortens the chain by one link. Without one, an urgent consignment out of Lima region has to be trucked to a hub or flown out with somebody sent from elsewhere. With one, it is 56 minutes of driving and a boarding pass.
The Gulf is one change away from LIM rather than nonstop, which is worth stating plainly. From Chosicthe best single change is Madrid (MAD), and MAD to DXB is flown by Emirates, about 2 departures a day. Counting a normal connection that is around 20h 30m gate to gate, so an assignment between Chosica and the Emirates is planned as a connecting itinerary and the desk books the whole thing on one ticket.

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 LIM, between Peru 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 56 minutes drive to LIM. 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 LIM, 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.
