18 hours ago

SHARJAH, (Pakistan Point News - 01st Oct, 2023) Sharjah Airport’s Cargo Centre completed its
preparations for handling horse shipments, in line with the efforts of Sharjah Airport Authority to
boost the efficiency of air cargo operations, particularly while handling cargo that requires
special attention.

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.
