In 2025 the wider Aeroflot Group took on a few former Volga-Dnepr freighters (Boeing 747-400ERF, 737-800BCF) via subsidiary Rossiya, reported as largely for spare parts.

About Aeroflot
Aeroflot is the flag carrier and largest airline of Russia, tracing its origins to 1923 and adopting the Aeroflot name in 1932, which makes it one of the oldest airlines still operating. It is majority state-owned, with the Federal Agency for State Property Management holding about 73.77 percent, and flies under IATA code SU and ICAO code AFL. Its main base is Moscow Sheremetyevo International Airport (SVO), which also serves as the hub for its cargo operations alongside domestic and international passenger services.
Aeroflot no longer runs a distinct freighter division. A subsidiary, Aeroflot-Cargo, was set up in 1995 and operated McDonnell Douglas MD-11F freighters, but it was declared bankrupt in 2009 and wound down by 2010, after which cargo was folded back into the parent airline. Today all freight moves as belly-hold capacity in the lower decks of passenger aircraft, using wide-bodies such as the Boeing 777-300ER, Airbus A330-300 and A350-900 on long-haul routes and A320-family and Boeing 737-800 narrow-bodies on shorter sectors.
Sanctions tied to the 2022 invasion of Ukraine reshaped the business. Aeroflot's SkyTeam membership, held since 2006, was suspended in April 2022, and airspace bans across the European Union, United Kingdom, United States and Canada cut off many Western lanes. Cargo and passenger traffic shifted toward China, the wider Asia region, the Middle East and CIS markets, with the China corridor a notable growth area. Access to Boeing and Airbus support was restricted, pushing the group toward domestic aircraft types and, in 2025, some used freighters acquired mainly for parts.

Aeroflot air cargo tracking FAQ
Where is Aeroflot based and what are its IATA and ICAO codes?
Aeroflot is the Russian flag carrier, headquartered in Moscow with its main hub at Sheremetyevo International Airport (SVO). Its IATA code is SU and its ICAO code is AFL, with the callsign AEROFLOT.
Does Aeroflot operate dedicated cargo freighters?
Not in its mainline fleet. Its former Aeroflot-Cargo subsidiary, which flew MD-11F freighters, went bankrupt in 2009 and was wound down by 2010. Aeroflot now carries freight as belly cargo in the holds of its passenger aircraft, such as the Boeing 777-300ER, Airbus A330-300 and A350-900.
How have sanctions affected Aeroflot's cargo network?
After the 2022 airspace bans, Aeroflot lost access to much of Europe, North America and other Western markets, and its SkyTeam membership was suspended. Its cargo and passenger network has since been redirected toward China and the wider Asia region, the Middle East, and CIS and domestic Russian markets.
How do I track a Aeroflot shipment?
Enter your Aeroflot Air Waybill (AWB) or Master Air Waybill (MAWB) number into Panvaya's tracker. You'll get the live flight route, milestone events, and a predictive ETA in real time, with no Aeroflot account or login needed for a quick lookup.
What is Aeroflot's IATA code?
Aeroflot's IATA code is SU. It identifies Aeroflot on bills of lading and shipping documents. On Panvaya you don't need to enter it. Just paste your AWB or MAWB number and we detect the carrier automatically.
Can I track Aeroflot air cargo by AWB number?
Yes. Panvaya tracks Aeroflot air cargo by Air Waybill (AWB) and Master Air Waybill (MAWB) number, returning live status, flight legs, and a predictive ETA.
Is Aeroflot air cargo tracking free on Panvaya?
Yes, you can track Aeroflot shipments for free, with no login for a quick lookup. Sign in to unlock the full journey: detailed milestones, predictive ETAs, transhipment legs, and exception alerts.
Why isn't my Aeroflot air cargo updating?
Aeroflot tracking reflects what the carrier and flight feeds have reported, so there is often a lag between a real-world move and the update. Panvaya refreshes on a regular cycle; a shipment that looks stuck usually just means the next milestone (such as uplift or arrival) hasn't been filed yet.
How accurate is the ETA for Aeroflot shipments?
Panvaya combines Aeroflot's schedule with live flight position and historical performance to predict arrival, and refines the ETA as the journey progresses and conditions change. It is a continuously updated estimate, not a guarantee.
