Fleet
Amazon Air is a cargo-focused airline established in 2015 as a subsidiary of Amazon to handle package logistics and freight transportation. Unlike traditional airlines, Amazon Air operates as a virtual carrier, meaning it does not own all aircraft in its network but leases and operates them through partnerships. The airline does not carry passengers.
The airline maintains a fleet of 101 aircraft as of the latest available data, comprising ATR 72, Boeing 737, and Boeing 767 aircraft. These aircraft are distributed across multiple operational hubs: Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (United States), Hyderabad (India), Leipzig/Halle (Germany), and San Bernardino (United States). This global network enables rapid package distribution across major markets.
Amazon Air provides cargo capacity to third-party customers via ad hoc charter services, scheduled blocked space arrangements, and one-off charters. The airline operates exclusively in the cargo sector, supporting Amazon's supply chain and offering logistics solutions to external shippers seeking reliable freight transport options.
