Amazon suspended operations with cargo carrier 21 Air following a fatal crash at Miami International Airport on September 6, 2026.
A Boeing 767 freighter operating for Amazon Air overran the runway during landing. The aircraft struck a vehicle and killed five people on the ground.
Amazon paused the partnership to support the investigation and review safety protocols. The company does not expect the suspension to significantly impact customer deliveries.
The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) is investigating the accident. Investigators are currently examining aircraft speed and pilot actions. The incident increases scrutiny on Amazon's third-party cargo operations and partner safety standards.
