Note that we will accept palletized shipments, as long as they are properly restrained.

Guidelines for Shipper-built Half Pallets

So that half pallets are properly secured and safely transported on our aircraft, please follow these guidelines:

• Cargo on the half pallet must be built to a minimum height of 63", with at least 50% of the top surface area built to this height.
• Half pallet cannot be vertically restrained on all four sides within the cargo compartment.
• Height and top surface requirement precludes vertical movement of the half pallet in the cargo hold.
• Pallets not meeting this height requirement must be rebuilt or refused for transport.
