Tracking status for a 610 AWB may not appear immediately after booking. It becomes visible only after the cargo has been physically accepted at a Air Astra cargo terminal and the AWB has been activated in their system. This typically takes 2–8 hours after acceptance. If your AWB still shows no status after 12 hours, contact Air Astra cargo customer service or your freight forwarder directly.
