I saw a video about a person inquiring about transporting 100 tonnes of equipment from China to France, and they needed it all transported in one flight. A charter company was helping this person and advised her that the only aircraft that can handle 100 tonnes in a single transport flight is the Antonov An-124. I was dumbfounded by this because I thought these types of aircraft only operate under contracted agreements and scheduled cargo flights, and I also thought they were under fixed schedules, not charter operations. Correct me if I’m wrong, and also educate me on how the process works.
Here's the video that I was talking about:
