Family Members and Travel Partners on Cargo Flights

Hallo Cargo Colleagues,

I have a question regarding entrainment of Family Members or Friends on Cargo Flights. ( No Duty guys or cargo attendands )

During my Cargo Carrer with my Company I experience a lot of differrent Regulations by each country.

Now I would like to find out if these regulations are a generell thing or different by each Company. And how other Cargo Carriers handle those regulations?

I would appreciate if you can tell me how this issue is handled in your company. Below you can find the Regulations for my Company.

China: due to traffic right reasons no duty or private travellers accepted.
India: only Spouses and Live Partners, no childs, parentals, travel partners
Moskau: no PADS permitted due to Airport fees.

And what ist the Update about the US Regulation about this Issue? Is there anything we can expect in near future?

Thx in advance for any Information...

I believe Cargolux and Star Air (UPS) still allow family members on board.
Lucky them!

These are the same rules applied also in Alitalia Cargo.The only exception was for Hong Kong where passengers were accepted without any Visa.
I'd like to know if there are some companies that presently admit relatives on flights direct to USA .

Probably not. The Department of Hopeless Stupidity in its infinite wisdom took care of that.
