Spanish term
Carta Aérea
Spanish to English
Bus/Financial
Transport / Transportation / Shipping
E-invoicing, customs
SPAIN. LatAm. This appears on its own without any other immediate surrounding context. The general area is transport and shipping documents, so I suspect it may be one way of referring to an air waybill (carta de porte aéreo), but another option could be "air chart" (according to Google, FWIW).

Note from asker:
| I thought so. The strings from this client are often erroneous backtranslations into Spanish from other languages. The most egregious one so far was "Polish" translated into Russian as the verb "polish"... :-) |

Aeronautical chart
There are results for this referring to an aeronautical chart for navigation.
'An aeronautical chart is a map designed to assist in navigation of aircraft,'
Typically that might more commonly be 'Carta aeronáutica' but some results use the two ('Carta aeronáutica'/'Carta aérea') interchangeably.

Note from asker:
| I understand this, however it seems rather out of place in a document where most of the other terms are to do with airfreight. I've posted a query on the client's platform asking for clarification, but it could be months before they respond. |

airway chart
It can also be an airways or aerial map. In finances it's a consignment note or bill.

A reference translates it as an airmail letter:
EN:"A letter sent via air mail can be called an aerogram."
Also, if it's about aviation it could be a charter, which is a document granting or demanding certain rights, fundamental principles of an organization, or the hiring of transport for private use.
(SP: Una carta enviada por correo aéreo puede ser llamada aérograma, carta aérea.
También, si se trata de aviación, puede ser un documento que estipula los estatutos que otorgan o exigen ciertos derechos, los principios fundamentales de una organización o el alquiler de transporte público para el uso privado.
