Atlas Air Worldwide Holdings, Inc. (New York) today (August 27) said that its Atlas Air, Inc. (New York) unit will provide expanded operating service for DHL Express’ North American route network using four additional Boeing 767-200 freighter aircraft owned by DHL. Atlas Air expects to start flying the first incremental aircraft in December 2014, and to operate all four by the end of January 2015.

The operation represents a continued expansion of Atlas Air’s non-asset-intensive CMI (Crew, Maintenance and Insurance) service solution, as well as its Boeing 767 platform. With the addition of the aircraft to Atlas Air’s operating certificate, the company’s fleet of Boeing 767s will increase to 15 aircraft, including nine operated for DHL in North America and two for DHL in the Asia-Pacific region.
