In order to further improve its transportation network and enable quicker deliveries to customers in the nation, Amazon India recently announced the debut of Amazon Air in India. Amazon will make full use of a Boeing 737-800 aircraft’s cargo capability, which will be flown by Quikjet Cargo Airlines Private Limited. In addition to Amazon’s senior leadership, Akhil Saxena, Vice President, Customer Fulfillment (APAC, MENA & LATAM) & WW Customer Service, and Sarah Rhoads, Vice President, of Amazon Global Air, were present at the induction ceremony of Quikjet’s new Amazon-branded aircraft in Hyderabad. Shri Kalvakuntla Taraka Rama Rao is the Minister for Municipal Administration & Urban Development, Industries & Commerce, and Information Technology of Telangana.

As the first e-commerce company in India to collaborate with a different airline to offer a specialized air cargo network, Amazon is reiterating its long-term commitment to improving India’s transportation system. To deliver Amazon client shipments to locations like Hyderabad, Bangalore, Delhi, and Mumbai, Quikjet will employ the aircraft. The company’s dedication to continuing to expand its transportation network for quicker delivery and to satisfy consumer demand is furthered by the introduction of Amazon Air in India.

 The delivery experience for Indian customers will only get better thanks to the investment in Amazon Air. Additionally, the launch would enable more than 1.1 million sellers in India, fostering expansion for related industries like transportation and aviation. This is an enormous stride forward for the aviation sector as well as a very significant step for both merchants and customers. They are commemorating an important accomplishment in their global goal to improve logistics in the future.

Since its 2016 U.S. launch, Amazon Air has expanded its air freight network to more than 110 planes and more than 70 locations worldwide. Since the introduction of Amazon Air, the company has added thousands of new employees throughout the world and invested hundreds of millions of dollars in air logistics capabilities. To satisfy the demands of its expanding client base, Amazon Air keeps developing internationally while also making investments in the creation of new jobs and green networking technologies.
