The journey of a package
We built the Amazon operations network from the ground up to ensure customers receive what they need, when they need it, wherever they are. From a veteran loading cargo into the belly of an Amazon Air aircraft, to the driver who delivers that familiar Amazon box, it's the people and partners across our operations network who make it all possible. Follow along as we introduce you to the Amazon all-stars who facilitate the journey of the package to ensure customer orders are fulfilled and delivered on time every single day.
