Human Logistics: Moving Military and Government Personnel

Depth Logistics is adept at moving military and government personnel anywhere in the world, cost-effectively, safely and promptly. We offer the unique capability of moving your people and their cargo in tandem and seamlessly, in one plan, by chartered or commercial aircraft, by sea and by land. We respond 24/7 for rapid deployments and emergencies.

People and cargo, moved together

Most travel providers move people, and most freight forwarders move cargo. We do both, so your team and its equipment arrive on the same plan, coordinated by one logistics team. This suits exercises, deployments and project teams that need their equipment on arrival.

How we move personnel

Air charter

We charter passenger aircraft of all types, sizes and capabilities to move people to even some of the most remote places on earth. See defence air charter flights.

Commercial air and sea travel

We also book air and sea travel with commercial operators when that is the better fit.

Land transport

Our team is well networked with coach and bus operators, and with rental companies if your team wants to self-drive on arrival.

Rapid deployment and emergency response

We can respond 24/7 for rapid deployments or emergency relief logistics. Our team supports Australian and allied defence personnel, including visiting foreign forces, and we hold Defence Industry Security Program (DISP) membership.

Supported from Brisbane, Darwin and Townsville

Personnel moves can be combined with cargo handled at our Depth Defence Logistics Centres in Brisbane and Darwin and our Townsville depot, all close to airports and defence bases. Our Brisbane centre is in the Brisbane Airport precinct, our Darwin centre is close to RAAF Base Darwin and Robertson Barracks, and our Townsville depot is in the Townsville RAAF Base precinct.
