Find the 11-digit air waybill number on the AWB or the booking confirmation. On a consolidated shipment, ask the forwarder for the master AWB: the airline doesn't know the forwarder's house AWB number.
Check the first three digits. Etihad Cargo numbers start with 607; any other prefix belongs to another airline's tracker.
Enter the number on Etihad Cargo's tracker. The prefix field is pre-filled with 607 and the eight-digit number goes beside it; one AWB per search, no login.
Etihad Cargo's US flights in its network map are bellyhold on passenger flights to and from Abu Dhabi, so US cargo connects in Abu Dhabi.
Etihad Cargo's network map also shows a US trucking network from New York JFK, Chicago, Washington Dulles, Los Angeles and Columbus Rickenbacker.
Booked with Airlift?
Airlift doesn't run its own airline tracking, and the Airlift container tracker covers ocean shipments only. If Airlift booked your shipment on Etihad Cargo, your Airlift contact has the flight milestones and can tell you where it is.
