Real-Time ULD Management & Tracking for Charter & ACMI Operators — Europe

ULD Management built for charter & ACMI operators in Europe

Belli rebuilt ULD management from first principles for charter & ACMI operators in Europe — not as a bolt-on to a legacy core. ULD management is the backbone of air cargo operations. Lost ULDs, poor positioning, and suboptimal space utilization cost airlines millions annually. Belli provides real-time tracking of every container and pallet across your entire network. European air cargo is governed by the most complex regulatory environment in the world including EU ICS2 and ACC3 requirements.

Operators routing through Paris CDG (CDG) and Amsterdam (AMS) — carriers in the class of Lufthansa Cargo, airBaltic — face the same pressure: more volume, tighter slots, and zero tolerance for a load plan that leaves revenue on the ramp. Belli's ULD management targets a measurable outcome — 30% fewer empty ULD moves — and goes live in 10 days for teams operating in Europe, not 12–18 months.

The operational reality in Europe

Here is what actually breaks for charter & ACMI operators in Europe.

• Customs and overflight permits managed outside core operations — compounded in Europe by GDPR compliance for all customer and shipment data processing
• No standard system for irregular, multi-leg routings — compounded in Europe by ACC3 designation required for all carriers operating into EU airports
• ACMI contract, lease, and block-hour tracking scattered across documents

What changes with Belli

The same operation, re-platformed:

• Flexible load planning for outsized, heavy, and project cargo
• Multi-leg, multi-country routings managed as a single trip
• ACMI contract, lease, and block-hour tracking in one place

Before Belli: Airlines lose track of 5-15% of their ULD fleet at any given time. Poor positioning creates bottlenecks and empty flights. After Belli: Real-time visibility of 100% of ULD inventory. AI-optimized positioning reduces empty ULD movements by 30%.

How Belli's ULD Management works in Europe

The mechanics are built for throughput, not paperwork — whether cargo moves through Paris CDG (CDG) or a dozen stations.

In practice, that means automated ULD control messaging (UCM), real-time ULD inventory and positioning, and ULD lifecycle tracking. Belli also covers damage and serviceability tracking against Europe's specific constraints. Every step is auditable, and changes deploy continuously rather than in quarterly batches.

Built for Europe's requirements

Europe is not a single market — it is a set of regulators, hubs, and carrier models that punish one-size-fits-all software. European air cargo is governed by the most complex regulatory environment in the world including EU ICS2 and ACC3 requirements.

That shows up in the details: GDPR compliance for all customer and shipment data processing; ACC3 designation required for all carriers operating into EU airports; and EU ICS2 mandatory pre-arrival cargo data filing. Carriers such as Lufthansa Cargo, airBaltic, IAG Cargo operate against exactly these conditions.

Going live in 10 days in Europe

Go-live is measured in days, and the date is contractual. Master data and partner connections are stood up against a real test load. Operators train on their own cargo, so day one feels familiar. Post-launch, changes ship continuously rather than waiting for a quarterly release.

The bottom line for Charter & ACMI Operators in Europe

Here is the case in plain terms. Manual workflows do not just cost hours — they cost yield on every departure. 30% fewer empty ULD moves is the outcome Belli is engineered to deliver. Carriers like Lufthansa Cargo, airBaltic, IAG Cargo already operate at this standard. The next step is a working demo, not a six-week sales cycle.
