How to track SAS Scandinavian Airlines shipments
1. Visit the official SAS Cargo website at https://www.sascargo.com and look for the 'Shipment Status' or tracking section. 2. Enter your air waybill number in the format 117-XXXXXXXX where the last digit is a check digit calculated as the 7-digit serial number modulo 7 (example: 117-12345675). 3. Click 'Track' or 'Submit' to view real-time status updates including 'Booked,' 'In Transit,' 'Transfer,' 'Delivered,' and 'Customs Clearance' stages, updated every 20 minutes. 4.

What 117-XXXXXXXX means
The 117 AWB prefix identifies SAS Scandinavian Airlines as the issuing carrier, ensuring the shipment is routed through their cargo network and handled by their facilities or authorized agents. The 7-digit serial number is the unique shipment identifier assigned sequentially by SAS Cargo. The final digit is a check digit calculated using modulo 7 arithmetic - divide the 7-digit serial by 7 and use only the remainder (for example, serial 1234567 ÷ 7 = 176,366 remainder 5, so the full AWB becomes 117-12345675).
SAS Scandinavian Airlines cold chain & perishables
SAS Scandinavian Airlines holds IATA CEIV Pharma certification for handling temperature-controlled pharmaceutical shipments. CEIV is the IATA-administered audit standard that validates a carrier's end-to-end cold-chain procedures, staff training, and facilities against pharma-grade requirements.
