For a cargo carrier like U.S.-based Kalitta Air, which specializes in ACMI and charter operations, the COVID-19 pandemic and its ensuing capacity crunch has resulted in extremely high fleet utilization, as shippers and forwarders have turned to freighter operators for help in flying their freight.

Of course, one factor working in Kalitta’s favor is its large freighter fleet. In addition to nine 767-300BDSFs and three 777Fs, the carrier has ten 747-400BCFs and fourteen production 747-400Fs, adding some sorely needed capacity to the market, even if not all are available for charters.
