Atlas Air Worldwide Holdings has added 20 conditional purchase rights to its A350F order placed earlier this year. The deal increases the size of the order from 40 to up to 60 widebody freighters. Chief strategy and transformation officer Martin Drew revealed the additional options. The order, announced on 16 March 2026, made Atlas Air the larger customer for the new type.
The order marks a pivot away from an all-Boeing fleet for Atlas Air. Deliveries are scheduled to take place between 2029 and 2034.
Atlas Air’s existing fleet includes Boeing 747-8F aircraft. The A350F order represents a significant change in the carrier’s fleet strategy.
