The airplane, a 767-300 converted freighter, now sports an Amazon livery and has been given the name Amazon One. It will be operated for Amazon by Atlas Air.

 

“Creating an air transportation network is expanding our capacity to ensure great delivery speeds for our Prime members for years to come,” said Dave Clark, senior vice president of worldwide operations. “I cannot imagine a better way to celebrate the inaugural flight than in our hometown at Seafair alongside Amazon employees and Seattle residents.”

 

The 767 is the first of 20 that Amazon has agreed to lease from Atlas Air. Another 20 will be operated by Air Transport Services Group.
