Around 7.4 m³ of usable volume, up to 3,175 kg gross — the unit and its cargo together. The unit itself weighs 185 kg empty, so the payload is the difference between the two.
It is loaded on 747, 777, 787, DC-10, MD-11. A type is certified per aircraft and sometimes per door, so a unit that fits one freighter will not always fit another.
Track the shipment rather than the unit: the air waybill number is what the airline reports against. Enter it in the air tracking app, or make the same lookup one REST call with the API reference.
