Cargo Airline Accounting

Dedicated cargo airlines operate freighter aircraft with unique accounting: freighter conversion cost capitalization, per-flight cargo revenue, and express/priority service differentiation. Arunika Consulting helps cargo airlines prepare compliant accounting books.

What usually goes wrong

  • Freighter Conversion Accounting

    Passenger aircraft (B737/B767) converted to freighter โ€” conversion costs must be capitalized separately.

  • Cargo Product Differentiation

    Revenue from general cargo, express, special cargo, and charters must be separated.
