[QUOTE="Returntosender, post: 1985516, member: 29240"] No I don't know much profit its take to run an airline. Amazon must of figure that out, and they must real confident, they can make it work cause they moving to into the air cargo business. What makes it interesting is at first Amazon was testing their aircargo only in the US. Now Amazon is flying the product in the EU. Amazon.com, Inc. ([URL='http://www.bidnessetc.com/company/amzn/']NASDAQ:AMZN[/URL]) has been conducting secret trial flights that have carried thousands of packages to and from its fulfillment centers in the United Kingdom. Evening Standard reports that the tech-giant has chartered a Boeing 737 aircraft, which has been flying on routes between Poland, Germany, and England since mid-November. The online-retail giant has reportedly chartered the aircraft from DB Schenker, a German logistics company. Five weekly flights have been determined so far, on which the planes travel first from Katowice, Poland to Kassel, Germany. Katowice and Kassel are both significant stops, as the airports in these towns are within close proximity of the e-commerce giant’s huge warehouses in the two countries, respectively.
