Amazon Air (often branded as Prime Air) is a virtual cargo airline primarily focused on transporting Amazon packages. The airline also offers cargo capacity to third-party customers, including through ad hoc, charter, and blocked space services. In 2017, it changed its name from Amazon Prime Air to Amazon Air to differentiate itself from Amazon's Amazon Prime Air autonomous drone delivery service. However, the Prime Air logo remains on the aircraft. Until January 2021, the airline had relied on wet-leasing its aircraft from other operators, but at that time, it had planned to directly own some aircraft. On the planes the airline owns, the airline will still rely on others for CMI (crew, maintenance, and insurance) leases.
