Raoul Sreenivasan, who joined Amazon in 2016 and currently oversees planning, performance and cargo for Amazon Global Air, will take over most of Rhoads' Amazon Air responsibilities, Felton said. As part of an effort to handle and deliver more of its own packages, Amazon launched an air cargo business. Rhoads joined Amazon Air in its early days and has overseen much of the unit's growth, including the opening of a $1.5 billion air hub in Kentucky. Air cargo rates have plunged from record highs hit during late 2021, when port snarls and a dearth of international flights pinched capacity and drove up prices. Correction: Sarah Rhoads joined Amazon in 2011.

NEW DELHI/BENGALURU, Jan 23 (Reuters) - Amazon.com Inc (AMZN.O) on Monday launched a dedicated air cargo service in India, Amazon Air, as it looks to expand and speed-up deliveries across one of its key markets amid fast-growing e-commerce sales, an executive said on Monday. The move to use a dedicated cargo service will give Amazon tighter control over costs and flight schedules while reducing delivery times across a wider range of products, said Rhoads. "We want to deliver the majority of shipments in two days or less and Amazon Air enables that." India is the third market, after the United States and Europe, where the company has launched Amazon Air. Amazon, which uses its own ground delivery services for shipping, also partners with Deutsche Post DHL Group (DPWGn.DE) controlled Blue Dart Express Ltd (BLDT.NS), one of India's biggest air cargo carriers.

To match Insight AMAZON.COM-SHIPPING/ REUTERS/Mark MakelaAmazon on Monday announced it's bringing its air cargo operations to India, marking fresh growth for the company's logistics arm even as it looks to cut costs in other divisions. Amazon Air will enable the company to offer faster deliveries to customers in India, said Sarah Rhoads, vice president of Amazon Global Air, in a statement. The launch of Amazon Air in India comes as Amazon CEO Andy Jassy is undergoing a broad review of the company's expenses as it stares down a worsening economic outlook and slowing retail sales. Amazon Air, which debuted in 2016, outsources operations to several airlines. Amazon has for years been working to grow its presence in India, which is poised to become one of the fastest-growing e-commerce markets in the world.
