American Airlines Cargo has achieved CEIV Pharma certification at its stations at New York JFK  (JFK) and Puerto Rico’s Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport (SJU).

The carrier said that the certifications underscore its “commitment to quality in Life Sciences handling, as the process evaluates safety, compliance, consistency, and training at each station to achieve certification”.

The latest certifications are the latest in a series of pharma certifications achieved by the airline.

The carrier pointed out that it now operates more than 30 CEIV or GDP-certified locations around the world, including Miami International, Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (AMS), Dublin Airport (DUB), Frankfurt Airport (FRA), Paris Charles De Gaulle Airport (CDG), Rio de Janeiro Galeão International Airport (GIG) and Shanghai Pudong International Airport (PVG).

The carrier also recently achieved re-certification of Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) and Philadelphia International Airport (PHL).

Eric Mathieu, head of customer experience for American Airlines Cargo, said: “The new CEIV certifications underscore our commitment to the safe and effective handling of pharmaceuticals and other Life Sciences commodities.

“We are committed to meeting our customers’ needs while ensuring compliance and excellence in the services we provide, and this is an example of that. We will continue to grow our cold-chain network and focus on how we can offer customers the best products and network for temperature-sensitive shipments.”
