Cargo Operator Currently Operates B727s

Amerijet International announced this week it recently signed a seven year agreement with Cargo Aircraft Management, Inc., a subsidiary of Air Transport Services Group, Inc. (ATSG) to lease five Boeing 767-200 freighter aircraft.

The 767s will enable Amerijet to increase capacity on its scheduled service routes, and expand its charter availability.

"Amerijet had identified this aircraft as key to our long term leadership in the markets we serve and crucial in enabling us to expand our service throughout the Americas," said Pam Rollins, Senior VP of Business Development. "Our customers will be very happy to have this aircraft available to service their needs, including charters, both within our current service region and beyond."

"Amerijet is planning to increase frequency to several favorable markets and potentially add new long-haul routes," Rollins added. "Amerijet's strong foothold in its existing markets, flexibility and reputation for outstanding performance will allow us to grow with our customers."

The carrier's current fleet of eight Boeing 727-200s (below) are deployed on scheduled and charter flights, to points in the Caribbean, Mexico, Central and South America.

Based in Fort Lauderdale, FL -- with its largest hub at Miami International Airport -- Amerijet operates offices throughout the world, offering land, sea and air cargo transport in North, South and Central America, Mexico, Europe, Asia, the Middle East and the Caribbean.
