Unit load devices

Unit Load Devices (ULDs) are the pallets and containers used to safely transport freight in our aircraft. They allow a large volume of cargo to be bundled into a single unit. Qantas has more than 16 types of ULDs in our global fleet that are available for your use.

This information is provided as a guide only. Please confirm contour and loading specifications at time of booking.
