The TCC process
Although anyone who accepts a package from another person for delivery during an upcoming trip is considered a casual courier, TCC developed an online forum where people with packages to send can more efficiently meet casual couriers who are awaiting packages to deliver.
Some additional features of TCC are:
- AirSitter: passengers with special needs can meet fellow travelers willing to be in-flight caregivers.
- Container Sharing: people can share space in large cargo shipping containers with other users.
- Mail-order: mail-order items can be sent directly to casual couriers.
