Etihad Cargo has set a benchmark in the region by becoming the Middle East’s first carrier to be awarded Iata’s Centre of Excellence for Independent Validators (CEIV) certification in Pharmaceutical Logistics.
Together with its cargo handling subsidiary, Etihad Airport Services, the airline is one of only 16 carriers worldwide to hold the certification which covers the airline operations and cargo handling and warehousing at its Abu Dhabi hub.
