Amazon Air Picks Airbus With Order For 10 Airbus A330P2Fs

Amazon Air today confirmed that it has signed a firm agreement regarding the leasing of 10 Airbus A330 aircraft. The cargo outfit is looking to ramp up shipping capacity amid robust e-commerce demand.

The right equipment

The A330-300P2F freighters will be on lease from worldwide aviation finance company Altavair. Airbus has noted that the aircraft are currently being transformed from passenger units to freighters by Elbe Flugzeugwerke (EFW), which has been scaling up its initiatives recently. Just this month, it revealed a new partnership with Turkish Technic for A330 conversions.

The Amazon Air units will be operated by Hawaiian Airlines. Notably, Hawaiian is familiar with the A330, having flown the type for over a decade.

Cargo had seen a substantial boom following the rise of the pandemic. While there have been signs of a slowdown with grounded aircraft and routes trimmed across the industry, significant growth potential still remains. As such, Amazon Air is keen to meet the requirements in this next chapter.

A mix of over 80 ATR 72, Boeing 737, and 767 aircraft are in action across the Amazon Air operation. However, these are all operated by other airlines such as Silver Airways, ASL Airlines, Atlas Air, Sun Country Airlines, and Air Transport International. Now, another type is joining the fold.
