Questions

What is the SWISS WorldCargo AWB prefix?

724. Every Swiss WorldCargo air waybill number starts with 724, followed by 8 more digits.

Why can't SWISS WorldCargo find my air waybill?

Tracking usually starts once SWISS WorldCargo accepts the cargo (status RCS). Before that, the number may exist but show nothing. Check that the number starts with 724. If you have a forwarder's number with letters, it's a house waybill: ask the forwarder for the master AWB.

Where is my SWISS WorldCargo AWB number?

On the air waybill (top corners), in your forwarder's booking confirmation, or on the shipping notice from the seller.

Can I ship lithium batteries or other dangerous goods with SWISS WorldCargo?

Check the item first in our UN number lookup: it gives the hazard class and how much can go in one package on a passenger or cargo aircraft. Airlines can add their own restrictions, so confirm with SWISS WorldCargo or your forwarder before booking.

Is this the official tracking site?

No. a-w-b.com is an independent lookup that sends you to Swiss WorldCargo's own tracking page. Status and contact questions go to SWISS WorldCargo.
