Air Arabia Parcel Tracking

Air Arabia Cargo tracking works by air waybill (AWB) number. Air Arabia Cargo is the cargo business of Air Arabia, the low-cost airline based in Sharjah, United Arab Emirates. It carries general cargo, perishables, valuables, courier shipments and mail across the airline's network, with its hub at Sharjah International Airport.

To check a consignment, enter the AWB number in the tracking field at the top of this page. Tracking is free and needs no registration. Track.Global shows the latest status and the events available for the shipment, from acceptance at the origin terminal to arrival at the destination.

How to track an Air Arabia Cargo shipment

1. Find the air waybill number on the AWB, in the booking confirmation from Air Arabia Cargo or in the documents from your freight forwarder.
2. Check the first three digits and the length: air waybills issued by Air Arabia start with 514 and have 11 digits.
3. Enter the number in the tracking field at the top of this page and start the search.
4. Review the latest status and the events recorded for the shipment.

Air Arabia Cargo tracking number

An air waybill number consists of a three-digit airline prefix and an eight-digit serial number whose last digit is a check digit. The prefix of Air Arabia is 514, so its air waybills look like 514-XXXXXXXX.

Air Arabia Cargo also handles cargo for other airlines of the Air Arabia group, such as Air Arabia Abu Dhabi, Air Arabia Egypt and Fly Jinnah, and their air waybills can start with a different prefix. Enter your number exactly as written and do not replace the first three digits with 514.

If you shipped through a freight forwarder, you may have a house air waybill (HAWB) issued by the forwarder. The airline tracks only the master air waybill (MAWB) under which the forwarder booked the cargo, so ask the forwarder for that number.

Air Arabia Cargo tracking statuses

Air cargo events are reported with standard IATA status codes. The most common are:

Not every code appears for every shipment. Connections, split consignments and customs holds can add further events.

How long does Air Arabia Cargo delivery take?

Transit time depends on the route, the frequency of flights, the space available on the booked flight and the type of cargo. A shipment that changes flights at a hub such as Sharjah spends extra time on the ground for unloading, handling and loading onto the next aircraft.

After arrival, the NFD status tells the consignee that the cargo can be collected. Customs clearance and pickup from the cargo terminal are arranged by the consignee or their customs broker and depend on local procedures.

Air Arabia Cargo tracking not updating: what to do

• Check the prefix and all eight digits of the serial number.
• Allow time after drop-off: the first event appears when the terminal accepts the cargo.
• If you only have a forwarder's house waybill, ask the forwarder for the master AWB.
• For bookings, charges and claims, contact Air Arabia Cargo through the official website linked at the top of this page or through your freight forwarder.
