Stratos, the prominent aircraft investment specialist and asset manager, has successfully delivered an Airbus A330-300 aircraft to Amazon. The aircraft, previously operated by Corsair, will now undergo a passenger-to-freighter (P2F) conversion as part of Amazon’s ongoing expansion of its dedicated air cargo operations.
This transaction underscores Stratos’ capability in managing the placement of mid-life wide-body aircraft, particularly in a market where airline fleets are being rapidly adjusted amid capacity constraints. The delivery was completed seamlessly, with smooth coordination between Corsair, Amazon, and Stratos, reflecting the high level of professionalism among all involved.
The A330-300’s transition highlights the growing demand for converted freighter aircraft, particularly as e-commerce companies like Amazon increase their investment in global logistics networks. The A330 P2F programme is increasingly seen as a cost-effective and efficient solution for air freight operators looking to expand capacity without ordering new aircraft.
The delivery further cements Stratos’ reputation for executing timely and efficient fleet transitions, while supporting airlines and logistics firms in adapting their operations to meet shifting market demands.
