Atlas Air Worldwide Holdings, Inc.

A provider of outsourced air-cargo and aviation services, Atlas Air operates Boeing 747 freighters and passenger jets on behalf of other customers — major airlines, express shippers, freight forwarders, and the U.S. military — supplying the aircraft, crew, and maintenance while they set the routes and fuel. Founded in 1992 by Michael Chowdry, who pioneered the idea of renting jumbo 747s to carriers that lacked their own capacity, the company grew into the world's largest operator of the Boeing 747 and took delivery of the final jumbo 747 ever built, in January 2023.
