There are two types of cargo; Special and General Cargo.


Special Cargo items include:

Dangerous goods, live animals, perishable cargo, wet cargo, time and temperature sensitive products, (human remains, pharmaceuticals and medicaments) among others.

General Cargo items include:

Items that do not require any extra precautions or special handling during air transport. These types of items are retail and most consumer goods (with the exception of mobile phones, tablets and laptops), dry goods, hardware, textiles, and more.
The cargo acceptance, warehousing, loading and unloading functions are contractually outsourced to local handling agents in Zimbabwe and Foreign Service providers at our regional destinations. Highly trained personnel both on ground and in air ensure the cargo ‘type’ complies with required standards for safe and secure transportation.
