1. Go to the [Air Zimbabwe cargo tracking page](https://www.airzimbabwe.aero/other-services/cargo). 2. Enter your AWB prefix number in the format 168-XXXXXXXX where the last digit is a mod-7 check digit (example: 168-12345675). 3. Your tracking results will show the current status and location of your shipment. 4. If your shipment status has not updated after 24 hours, contact Air Zimbabwe cargo at +263 712 875 369 or cargo@airzimbabwe.aero.

The 168 prefix identifies Air Zimbabwe as the issuing airline for your air waybill. The 7-digit serial number is the unique shipment identifier assigned by Air Zimbabwe. The final digit is a check digit calculated as the serial number divided by 7, remainder only (mod-7). This prefix ensures your shipment is properly routed through Air Zimbabwe's cargo system and handled by their designated cargo agents throughout the delivery network.
