I've been doing alot of aircraft logging lately, and recently (within past 3 days) I've noticed Amazon Air hasnt had any aircraft activity/movement for a while. Does anyone know why?
What I'm assuming is the stopped aircraft to focus on the drone delivery program or they've stopped operations due to the large incident across the ocean.

SOO or Southern Airways was owned by Atlas for years and late last year they merged their operations.

I would bet that Amazon cargo flights are still as busy as ever. Remember that Amazon has several partners that they contact flying to. So it's very possible that Amazon just shuffled flying to another partner.

Filter your ADSB view on flight by ATN (Air Transport International) and you'll currently see 9 Amazon-livery B767s airborne as I write this.

Which online service are you using for ADSB viewing, or are you only using your personal receiver/decoder? I'm using FlightRadar24 (and am a feeder) so I can 'filter' on an aircraft callsign, or type, etc. from the FR24 web page display.

Don't filter down to SOO only because their operations have merged with Atlas, and going forward they will only be using the Atlas operating certificate (and Callsign).

As discussed earlier, Amazon has several partners that prime air is contracted out to. A list is here in the fleet section of this wiki article.
Oh ok. That makes much more sense. Thanks for the help.
