Icelandair Cargo Tracking

Icelandair Cargo was established as a separate entity in 2000, after Icelandair founded a special cargo department in 1973, and is now one of the leading arctic airfreight carriers in the North Atlantic region. Icelandair Cargo's main markets are Central Europe and North America, with the carrier handling freight between Europe and North America via its Keflavik hub. The airline has invested in 1,400 sq m of temperature-controlled facilities at its Keflavik hub for handling perishable goods and pharmaceuticals.

1. Go to https://www.icelandaircargo.is/en/services/track-and-trace/ or the official Icelandair Cargo tracking portal. 2. Enter your AWB prefix number in the format 108-XXXXXXXX where the last digit is a check digit calculated by dividing the 7-digit serial by 7 and taking the remainder (example: 108-12345675). 3. The system will display your shipment status, current location, and transit history including pickup, departure, arrival, and delivery information. 4. If tracking information is not updated after 24 hours or you need assistance, contact Icelandair Cargo customer service at +354 5050 400.

The AWB prefix 108 uniquely identifies Icelandair Cargo as the airline responsible for the shipment. The 7-digit serial number following the prefix is the unique shipment identifier, while the final digit is a check digit calculated using mod-7 arithmetic (the serial number divided by 7, with only the remainder used). For example, in AWB 108-12345675, the serial is 1234567, and dividing by 7 gives remainder 5, making the complete AWB number 108-12345675. This prefix ensures the shipment is routed through Icelandair Cargo's network and systems.

Icelandair transports live animals under the IATA Live Animals Regulations (LAR), which govern container, ventilation, and species-specific handling requirements for livestock, day-old chicks, zoo animals, household pets, and laboratory animals. Bookings require species-specific documentation and approved containers; book through the cargo team with at least 48 hours notice.

Icelandair Cargo specializes in transporting perishables, pharmaceuticals, and live animals, offering temperature-controlled shipping options for perishable and sensitive goods. The carrier operates 1,400 sq m of temperature-controlled facilities at Keflavik for handling perishable goods and pharmaceuticals.

As a leading cargo carrier in the North Atlantic region, Icelandair Cargo takes environmental responsibility seriously, working in partnership with customers to understand and continuously minimize the carbon footprint in fleet strategy and operational aspects.
