SUMMARY


With more than 40 years of experience in the cargo industry, Amerijet operates its own dedicated freighter fleet of B767-300/200 aircraft from its primary hub at the Miami International Airport to 38 destinations throughout the Caribbean, Mexico, Central, and South America.


The company provides more main deck capacity to more destinations with more frequency than any other all-cargo operator in its service region. Amerijet's global network reaches 476 destinations in Europe, Asia, Pacific, South Africa, and the Middle East with seamless and transparent transportation solutions for customers shipping time-sensitive, valuable and temperature-controlled commodities.


Within the United States, Canada, and Mexico, Amerijet partners with premium regional and local asset-based carriers to provide full truckload, less-than-truckload, and expedited services.

• Set a high standard


• Handle a wide variety of situations while working with other team members and our customers


• Work independently or as part of a team with limited supervision


• Be responsible for the safe, on-time, and efficient operation of our aircraft
