These preparations are made to efficiently meet the specific requirements for
handling such cargo and ensure seamless facilities for accompanying horsemen
to complete procedures to transport horses within the country or abroad. The
move coincides with the beginning of the local and international horse racing and
equestrian festival season.

The Cargo Centre at Sharjah Airport offers top-notch facilities and innovative
logistic solutions to facilitate the transportation of purebred horses through the
airport.

The amenities include a dedicated stable on-site that guarantees easy access for
the horses and their companions. In addition, the stable will be equipped with
customised floorings, like Astroturf, that allow easy movement for horses.

Sharjah Aviation Services (SAS), the ground handling services provider at
Sharjah Airport, offers these amenities through its specialised team. The
exceptional services of SAS have been recognised with the IATA Safety Audit for
Ground Operations (ISAGO) certification, which reflects its dedication to
ensuring the highest safety and security standards while handling all cargo.
