In time-critical logistics the terms commonly describe the same core service: a person travels with the shipment rather than sending it through a normal hub network.
Departure depends on collection readiness, courier and flight availability, airline acceptance, customs, security and destination entry requirements.
No. Passenger-aircraft rules, dangerous-goods restrictions, airline policies, customs controls and destination laws still apply.
