How does Air Cargo Tracking work for your business?

We are pleased to introduce you to the intuitive functionality of the Air Cargo Tracking tool and reveal all its useful features to you. Let's analyze how our IT solution for shipping can be beneficial to your daily demands.

The tool provides accurate and in-depth information from 370+ airlines worldwide, which helps us ensure data reliability for you. Regular improvements to the SeaRates database provide your web-integrated and API versions with timely updates on air cargo statuses. 

You can obtain the latest data from Air Cargo Tracking such as the following:

- autodetect of the airline and carrier
- interactive map with real-time navigation of your transportation route and current cargo location
- advanced shipment data, conveniently categorized in the "History" and "Details" columns:
- "History" contains a detailed description of the full route data, including dates, times, and locations;
- "Details" contains detailed information about the cargo, aircraft name, ETA, ATD, ATA, and other important logistics events.

How can I receive information about the status of my air shipments?

For easier shipping management, the status of your shipments is displayed in the upper right corner of the shipment card. It’s marked as Notified/Arrived/Delivered. Simply enter your Air Waybill to begin the tracking, and obtain such data as air freight information, delivery status, cargo location on the map, and so on. If you encounter any technical difficulties, please do not hesitate to contact us.

How can I share tracking results with my partner or customer?

We provide you with the ability to share access to your shipping cards to simplify communication between shippers and carriers. The user should open the shipment card and provide direct access to it by simply copying the link to the card. This way, you can keep your partner tuned and up-to-date with any logistics events and changes your supply chain has. Real-time, accurate air cargo information complements the logistics and trading businesses of all stakeholders and improves your customers’ logistics experience.
