Transport of dangerous goods by air

Air Transport of Dangerous Goods

The air transport of dangerous goods is a specialized service exclusively organized by companies holding a valid Dangerous Goods Certificate. This certification is granted by the International Air Transport Association (IATA) following a specific training course and examination. The regulations governing the transport of dangerous goods by air are notably intricate, given that these goods can be transported alongside passengers. Stringent guidelines mandate that dangerous goods must be securely packed in specialized containers, appropriately labelled, and all cargo documents submitted to the airline must be error-free. A2 Cargo’s air transport specialists bring extensive experience to the table in handling the air transport of dangerous goods, managing over 2500 consignments classified as Dangerous Goods annually.
