Atlas, Southern and Polar all do flying for Amazon and DHL. I suspect DHL is going to make another push into North America. This time partnering with Amazon. Amazon is building a domestic air network and domestic ground network. Amazon is building regional airport gateways and domestic air hub. Once this matured it gives DHL an air, ground network again in North America. Amazon gets a revenue stream outside of internal delivery. The DHL volume will offset the Amazon cost along with giving drivers more money for local DHL pickups in North America. DHL in return will give Amazon a global footprint for international growth.

I wouldn’t be surprised if this is Amazon union busting. Amazon driving down Atlas stock. Amazon buys Atlas. Takes over the pilot group and certificate bringing the airline completely in house.
