What do you think Cargo ACMI is? Typically, it is contract flying, long term or short term, in effect "charter". Does ATLAS have their own full-service scheduled cargo service now?

Who actually owns those planes? I thought they were Sonairs' and Atlas is only providing crews.

Actually, Atlas is hauling a lot of their own cargo out of HKG, ICN and from MIA south and back.

The plane flying for Panalpina (HSV,STN,LUX,MEX,GUA) is actually flying on Atlas's right, since Panalpina is only a freight forwarder.


SonAir owns the planes, it is a CMI deal. Crew, Maint. and insurance provided by Atlas.

For obvious reasons (security) we cannot disclose this location.

No worries, I kinda figured :)

Giant Pilot you were not serious were you???

IAH is Houston in case you dont know. Lots of watering holes and hotels in Houston. Where the Atlas girls hang out and have a few is hardly high security information.

Whale,

Go ahead and tell him where the hotels and hangouts are for the Atlas crews, and while you're at it, if you happen to know the hotels and watering holes for FDX, UPS, AA, CAL, UAL and XYZ airline add it to the list also. I'm not going to publish this kind of info on a forum board! You could always send him a PM with the info if you really want to help a fellow aviator out!
