Tips for quicker retrievals

• Have your waybill and documents ready when you arrive at AC2. This will expedite the retrieval process.
• Do not block or hold doors while waiting for paperwork from AC1. Please proceed to AC2 when you have all documentation and have been advised to do so by counter staff.
• Do not deconsolidate freight on the dock as it blocks a loading door from another customer.
• Have the appropriately sized vehicle for your shipment.

A member of the Customer Service Team will reach out to you shortly to confirm your continued participation and to schedule a timeslot of pick-ups for a duration of the construction project.

Wearing a Face Covering at Our Facilities

For your safety and that of our employees, effective immediately, Air Canada Cargo strongly recommends that our customers and their representatives (including truck drivers) wear face coverings when visiting our facilities. This additional safeguard follows Transport Canada's directive that travelers wear face coverings at Canadian airports and is consistent with recommendations from various health authorities, including the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC).

If you or one of your representatives visits one of our cargo facilities, we ask that you bring your own face covering, which may include a cloth mask, scarf, bandana, or similar item. Please see the Government of Canada website for examples of recommended non-medical coverings.

The encouraged use of face coverings compliments the existing precautions in place at our facilities. Air Canada Cargo employees practice social distancing, wear gloves as part of their normal PPE, and are also encouraged to wash their hands regularly and avoid touching their face. We ask that our visitors do the same, and that anyone with a cough or any flu-like symptoms make alternate arrangements rather than visit us in person.

Customer-facing areas at some Air Canada Cargo facilities have been modified and we ask that you follow the directions provided on signage and floor decals to encourage social distancing.

In many cases, local stations will implement additional measures tailored to their needs.

We appreciate your cooperation in keeping our workplace safe for everyone.
