Around 17.6 m³ of usable volume, up to 6,804 kg gross — the unit and its cargo together. The unit itself weighs 350 kg empty, so the payload is the difference between the two.
It is loaded on 747F, 747 Combi, 777F (center loading only), A330F, 767F, IL76, L100, MD11F. 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.
