Ameriflight takes flight across the Americas, delivering time-sensitive packages for banks and for other air cargo carriers. The company serves some 200 communities, primarily in the western US but also elsewhere in the US and in Canada and Mexico. Managing 75,000 packages a day, it operates a fleet of about 170 aircraft, consisting of small jets and turboprops from several manufacturers, from about a dozen hubs. The company serves other air cargo carriers by meeting their larger air freighters at major airports and distributing cargo to markets not easily served by big aircraft. Ameriflight is owned by its management team.

Amerijet International moves freight by multiple methods not only in the Americas and not only by jet. The company provides scheduled air cargo services in North, South and Central America, Mexico, the Caribbean, Europe, Asia, and the Middle East, with a fleet of about 15 Boeing aircraft. Amerijet also arranges ground transportation of its customers' freight in North America and offers air and sea freight forwarding services worldwide. (As a freight forwarder, the company buys capacity from transportation providers and resells it to customers.) The company maintains about 370,000 sq. ft. of warehouse space. Miami-based investment firm H.I.G. Capital Management owns a controlling stake in Amerijet.

Jets, not bows, power this Arrow. Arrow Air, which does business as Arrow Cargo, flies freight between the US and points south. Operating a fleet of DC-8s and DC-10s from its hub in Miami, the company serves more than 20 cities in Central and South America and the Caribbean. Arrow Cargo's facilities include a 67,000 sq. ft. refrigerated warehouse and more than 155,000 sq. ft of dry cargo space. The company's customers, which consist primarily of freight forwarders, passenger and cargo airlines, and other transportation providers, also include the United States Postal Service and the US Department of Defense. Arrow filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in mid-2010.

ASTAR Air Cargo helps DHL take on delivery giants FedEx and UPS on their own turf. Hiring the carrier's fleet of about 40 aircraft enables DHL and other customers, including the US Department of Defense and the United States Postal Service, to achieve overnight delivery of virtually any kind of cargo. ASTAR's service includes scheduled as well as chartered flights. In January 2009, ASTAR suffered a blow when -- in order to cut down on costs -- DHL was forced to shut down its express operations within the US. (Through ASTAR and other carriers, DHL still offers international shipping services to and from the US). An investment group led by CEO John Dasburg controls ASTAR.
