About
ABX Air, established in 1980 as Midwest Air Charter, is an American cargo airline headquartered at Wilmington Air Park near Wilmington, Ohio that grew rapidly to become the third-largest airline express company in the United States.

ABX Air currently operates under agreements with DHL and Amazon that together provide more than $1.5 billion annually in revenue (2024).
How to track ABX Air shipments
1. Visit one of the third-party tracking platforms such as GoComet or E-tracking since ABX Air does not offer public cargo tracking on its website. 2. Enter your air waybill number in the format 832-XXXXXXXX where 832 is ABX Air's prefix and the final digit is a mod-7 check digit (example: 832-12345675). 3. You will see status updates showing your shipment's current location and progress through ABX Air's network. 4. If your tracking shows no updates after 24 hours, contact ABX Air at 937-382-5591 for assistance.
What 832-XXXXXXXX means
The AWB prefix 832 identifies ABX Air as the carrier responsible for your shipment, ensuring it routes through ABX Air's network and systems. The 7-digit serial number is the unique identifier for your specific shipment, while the final digit is a check digit calculated as the serial number divided by 7, with only the remainder used (mod-7 calculation). For example, with serial number 1234567, dividing by 7 gives remainder 5, making the complete AWB 832-12345675. This prefix system allows freight forwarders and other carriers to immediately identify ABX Air as the operating carrier when processing your shipment.
