Amerijet International Airlines has marked its 50th anniversary in December 2024. Founded in 1974 by David Bassett, the company began with humble beginnings, operating as a Part 135 air-taxi operator with a single leased airplane evolving into a market leader in the Caribbean & Central America operating twelve 767 freighters.
From the start, Amerijet has been committed to delivering exceptional customer service, with a focus on reliability and safety. These principles have been the cornerstone of the company's operations, building a reputation for trust and excellence across industries and regions.
Reflecting on this milestone, CEO Joe Mozzali stated, “For a company to achieve a 50th year anniversary milestone is extremely impressive, especially in the dynamic Latin America air cargo market. This is a direct reflection of our resilience while providing value and service to customers and communities. We could not do what we do without our most valuable asset “our people”. I want to thank our employees for their dedicated efforts as well as our customers for their loyal support.
A year after its restructuring and transformation efforts, Amerijet has emerged as a stronger cargo airline, both operationally and financially. Scheduled Service and charter revenue November YTD have increased 18% and 39%, respectively. Amerijet is now well-positioned long term to remain a market leader in the Caribbean and Central America while executing our mission of transporting goods that enrich and connect the lives of our customers and communities.
