About
Amazon Air is a virtual cargo airline that operates exclusively to transport Amazon packages. It was formerly known as Amazon Prime Air before changing its name in 2017 to avoid confusion with their autonomous drone delivery service. The airline initially wet-leased its aircraft from other operators but has since begun to directly own some aircraft, while still relying on CMI (crew, maintenance, and insurance) leases for these planes.
From the SAFxCHANGE company list, where it is filed as "Cargo Airline".

A company page draws on the SAFxCHANGE record: the agreement table (2013 to late 2023), the plants table (December 2023) and what the reader has found in the news since, marked unverified until checked. The categories follow the SAFxCHANGE value-chain map; they were assigned from the company's role in the deals and plants and from what is written about it, and a company can fill more than one. Names are matched by their words, so a company recorded under two very different names may show on two pages.
