Amazon suspends operations with 21 Air after fatal Miami crash

On Sunday evening, Amazon announced it has temporarily halted operations with 21Air, the company that operates a cargo plane involved in a fatal crash in Miami last week. The company stated in a blog post that they have been supporting the ongoing investigation and reviewing the circumstances surrounding the incident, leading to the decision to pause their operations with 21Air. They emphasized their ongoing commitment to assisting the investigation and those affected by the tragedy.

Last Sunday, a Prime Air flight operated by 21Air overran a runway upon landing at Miami International Airport, resulting in a devastating crash. The aircraft collided with several vehicles on the ground, causing extensive damage. Tragically, five individuals sustained injuries in the accident. The National Transportation Safety Board swiftly launched an investigation into the incident. Amazon further disclosed that they were gathering additional information to understand the full sequence of events leading to the crash.
