Amazon is set to add Jacksonville International Airport (JAX) to its expanding US distribution network, strengthening its logistics footprint in the Southeast and improving regional delivery efficiency.
The move is expected to enhance Amazon’s middle-mile and last-mile capabilities by providing faster connectivity across Florida and neighbouring states. JAX’s strategic location, growing cargo infrastructure, and access to major highway corridors make it an attractive addition to Amazon’s air and ground logistics ecosystem.
Industry sources say the inclusion of JAX will support Amazon’s ongoing push to shorten delivery times while building redundancy into its network amid peak demand periods. The airport has been steadily positioning itself as a cargo-friendly hub, with recent investments in airside and landside facilities.
Amazon continues to scale its logistics operations globally, combining dedicated air cargo services, leased aircraft, sortation centres, and fulfilment hubs to support e-commerce growth. The addition of JAX underscores the company’s focus on regional diversification as it adapts its supply chain to evolving consumer demand and cost pressures.
