Can Air AMS accept sub-house air waybill records associated with a house air waybill record?
A. A sub-house air waybill refers to multiple house air waybills that are consolidated into a single (consolidated) house air waybill record. The sub-house air waybill would contain the identity of the shipper and consignee while the consolidated house air waybill record may only list the consolidator/forwarding agent as the shipper and consignee. Since Air AMS can only accommodate one level of house air waybill identification, the Air AMS participant must report the sub-house air waybill information in the house air waybill field. The consolidated house air waybill information need not be reported.
