Track Cathay Cargo Air Waybill (160)
AWB prefix 160 is filled in — just type the 8-digit serial.
Cathay Cargo air waybills use IATA carrier prefix 160. The prefix is already filled in on this page, so you only need the 8-digit serial number — the part after the dash on your airway bill. Enter it below and we open the official Cathay Cargo cargo tracking page in a new tab. We never store your AWB.
