The text is based on real data from criminal files of the Customs Administration of the Czech Republic and combines quantitative statistical analysis with qualitative analysis of selected case studies.

The article identifies the basic typology of drug smuggling methods in air transport and emphasizes the importance of criminalistic tactics, behavioral assessment of persons and the use of technical detection means. The conclusions of the work have application significance for criminalistic practice, prevention and optimization of control procedures in the aviation environment.
