SF Airlines Cargo Tracking

SF Airlines, established in 2009, is the cargo airline subsidiary of SF Express and arguably the No.1 cargo carrier in China in terms of fleet numbers. Boasting the leading air cargo fleet in Asia and a network covering domestic and international destinations, the airline operates over 110 domestic and international destinations with routes spanning Asia, Europe, and North America. In January 2025, SF Airlines officially obtained the IATA CEIV Pharma certification, becoming one of the few airlines in China to achieve this recognition and marking a significant step into the pharmaceutical cold chain logistics sector.

1. Go to www.sf-airlines.com and click the "Cargo Inquiry" button. 2. Enter your AWB prefix number in the format 921-12345678 where the last digit is a mod-7 check digit (example: 921-12345675). 3. Click the "Track" button, and the system will display the latest transportation status of the cargo. 4. Alternative: Call SF Airlines customer service hotline: 95338 for assistance if tracking is not updated.

The 921 prefix is the air waybill number of SF Airlines Cargo, identifying it as the operating carrier responsible for your shipment. The 7-digit serial number following 921 is the unique shipment identifier assigned by SF Airlines to track your cargo through their network. The final digit is a check digit calculated using mod-7 arithmetic - the 7-digit serial number divided by 7, with only the remainder used as the check digit to validate the AWB number's accuracy.

SF 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.
