If your UPS account manager is any good, they would put you in touch with their counterpart at UPS Supply Chain Solutions (SCS) as they do all the UPS air and ocean freight.

This, would go aboard normal passenger aircraft so city to city quick.

Aren't UPS hugely expensive?

If you could send me details I'll happily send you a quote.

Interestingly, when I had a weapons-grade fk up on freight and head to send a piece of machinery to Greece in a hurry, they were only a few percent more than our regular people but could clear the stuff through customs much quicker, which was quite critical.
