Special handling of your products.
You can add GOLD product if your shipment requires additional priority.
The dimensions are subject to restrictions according to the type of aircraft used on the route.
If you consider the use of a "datalogger" in your shipment, it must be one of the models allowed by Aeroméxico Cargo, otherwise you will need to process your authorization prior to documenting your shipment. For more information contact an advisor.
All shipments are subject to the provisions of the general cargo contract and the provisions of the Civil Aviation Law. The sender is responsible for ensuring that his shipment complies with these provisions.
Shipments containing Dangerous Goods (DG) must comply with the regulations issued by the International Air Transport Association - IATA. Example, Dry ice as a coolant.
The shipment of any type of meat, skin or parts of endangered animals will not be possible, unless you comply with all local regulations.
Merchandise with a bad smell or visible condition will not be accepted.
Consider at least six hours prior to flight departure if your shipment contains dangerous goods, dry ice as a refrigerant or any other classified as dangerous goods.
Your shipment will be inspected according to the requirements of the Civil Aviation Authority.
Your shipment will be available for delivery to the customer 2 hours after the actual landing time of the flight; except for fortuitous situations beyond the control of the Charge that do not allow compliance with this time, e.g., strong storm at the station, closure of roads to vehicle traffic, etc.
Each piece of your shipment must be clearly labeled with the name and address of both the shipper and recipient. A 24-hour shipper's phone number is required on the shipment receipt (air waybill).
Reused cardboard boxes, printed boxes whose printing does not correspond to the product they contain (e.g. egg boxes that do not transport eggs) are not accepted.
For a safe transport of your products, you must consider at least three packages, as well as the use of materials that help to protect or contain liquids when using a refrigerant. The recommendations described are not limiting, so you could use and add materials for the preservation of your product, as deemed necessary.
Shipments must be clearly marked "PERISHABLE".

Shipments must have packaging that ensures their safe transportation with ordinary handling care. That is, the size of the packaging must be proportional to the dimensions of the product.
Packaging example
Leak proof primary container. If multiple primary containers are handled, they should be individually wrapped to avoid contact with each other.
Leak-proof secondary container
High caliber plastic or Styrofoam cooler. no drain
Damping material.
Absorbent material.
Absorbent material between the primary and secondary container.
The IATA label for perishable cargo and the “This Way Up” label should be placed on one side of the box; preferably.
Example of packaging for wet cargo:
A.- Product packed with double plastic. B.- Corrugated cardboard box. C.- Plastic or absorbent material. D.- Waterproof or plastic box.
Fruits and vegetables
a) Cardboard, plastic and/or wooden box (“huacales”) according to the contents of the shipment.
Fruits and vegetables should be packed in ventilated containers that are strong enough to protect them from crushing.
The wax-coated carton provides properties that the carton itself cannot provide.The resistance of the wax to moisture increases the rigidity of the cardboard box.
The resistance of the wax to moisture increases the rigidity of the cardboard box.
The ropes used to strap a cardboard box can crack the box, so its use is not recommended.
Meat, fish and shellfish
The packaging of meat, seafood in plastic bags is required.
The refrigerant should be placed at the bottom and the top of the packing.
The refrigeration agent can be: wet ice, dry ice, frozen gel, cold accumulators.
The correct location for pads or any other absorbent materials in a box is at the bottom of the packaging, between the surface and the bottom coolant.
Expanded polystyrene (styrofoam) boxes or plastic coolers should be chosen.
Flowers and plants
Corrugated cardboard box, cardboard covered with plastic.
Optional: Use expanded polystyrene (styrofoam) when flowers need to be insulated from outside temperatures.
The boxes must have inserts that can support and protect the heads of the flowers, this in order to avoid any damage during transport.
Wax-coated or plastic-coated boxes help maintain high humidity for the flowers. The above are recommendations and are not limited to additional requirements during product acceptance at the counter. For more information, contact your Aeroméxico Cargo sales executive.
