They want volume, and the A330 has more volume than the 767 does. They move stuff around between distribution centers domestically to facilitate their Prime 2-day shipping. They have other networks for their foreign operations, and if they're moving significant volume across oceans, I'm not aware of it.
I heard it from a check airman so it’s gotta be true!
