Korean Air has renewed its Certification
Independent Validators Pharma (CEIV Pharma) with IATA.
CEIV Pharma is an international standard
that recognizes an airline’s capability to manage pharmaceuticals.
More than 280 checklists, including transportation handling
procedure, storage facilities, equipment and the ability to
adhere to regulations, are evaluated by air cargo transportation
experts for certification.

Korean Air frequently
transports pharmaceuticals such as vaccines, lab reagents and
serums, as well as fresh products including flowers, fruits, seafood,
through its “Specialized-Pharma” and “Specialized-Fresh” services.
Through a joint investment with Incheon
International Airport Corporation, the airline operates a “Cool
Cargo Center” at the airport’s Terminal 2. Constructed in
September 2021, the facility significantly improved the service
quality of temperature-sensitive cargo by minimizing exposure to
adverse environments and by reducing unnecessary movement and
traffic.
The airline has also transported more than 100 million doses of
COVID19 vaccines to date, and continues to transport emergency
medical supplies - from COVID treatments and to diagnostic kits –
around the world.
Certification is valid for three years.
