Amerijet Chief Executive Tim Strauss will join the panel discussion “The future of the LATAM perishables market” at Cargo Facts LATAM, May 17, at 9:50 a.m. (GMT -5).
The inaugural Cargo Facts LATAM will take place in Panama City on May 15-17. The event will gather industry leaders in the region to offer their perspectives and analyses on market trends and provide an outlook on the Latin American air cargo market.

Amerijet continues to expand its widebody fleet, and expects to put into service its first 767-300BCF leased from Cargo Aircraft Management next month. The Miami-based airline recently secured Denmark-based Maersk as a CMI customer for 767 operations. Amerijet also has grown its 757-200F fleet to six of the type.

Before joining Amerijet in 2020 as chief executive, Strauss held leadership roles in global sales and operations at Air Canada, Hawaiian, Delta and Northwest Airlines. Strauss began his career with Emery Worldwide in 1987 where he began as a cargo handler and worked his way to vice president of transportation and logistics.
Strauss studied management at Ohio State, MIT and Cambridge Institute.
