What 416-XXXXXXXX means
The AWB prefix 416 identifies National Air Cargo as the issuing carrier and ensures your shipment is routed through their network for tracking and handling. The 7-digit serial number is the unique identifier for your specific shipment, while the final digit is a check digit calculated by dividing the 7-digit serial number by 7 and using only the remainder (mod-7). For example, if your serial number is 1234567, dividing by 7 gives remainder 5, making your complete air waybill number 416-12345675.
