Major Fleet Expansion: ATSG to Receive First Four A330P2F Conversions in 2025

By Maria Kalamatas – The Logistic News | March 5, 2025

Air Transport Services Group (ATSG), the world’s largest lessor of freighter aircraft, is set to take delivery of its first four Airbus A330-300 Passenger-to-Freighter (P2F) conversions in 2025. This move marks a strategic shift for ATSG as it expands beyond its traditionally Boeing-dominated fleet, reinforcing its position in the evolving global air cargo market.

A Strategic Shift Towards Airbus Freighters

ATSG’s commitment to acquiring 29 A330P2F aircraft reflects the increasing demand for efficient, mid-to-large-sized freighters. The aircraft, converted by Elbe Flugzeugwerke (EFW)—a joint venture between ST Engineering and Airbus—boasts a gross payload capacity of up to 63 tons and a containerized volume of approximately 18,581 cubic feet. This additional space provides a 23% increase in cargo capacity compared to other models in its class, making it a highly competitive option for air freight operators.

“The A330P2F represents the future of mid-widebody freighters, offering an optimal balance of payload, range, and cost efficiency,” said Mike Berger, Chief Commercial Officer at ATSG. “These aircraft will allow us to better serve our customers and meet the growing demand for high-capacity cargo transport.”

A Timely Response to Market Demand

The conversion process for these aircraft began in mid-2023, with the first two set for completion in early 2025. Once delivered, the aircraft will be managed by ATSG’s subsidiary, Cargo Aircraft Management (CAM), which leases converted freighters to major clients, including Amazon and DHL.

With rising e-commerce volumes and increased global trade, the demand for efficient, high-capacity freighters has never been greater. The A330P2F’s ability to handle large payloads while offering lower operational costs compared to older widebody freighters positions it as a game-changer in the industry.

Strong Market Confidence in ATSG’s Expansion

Customer interest in the A330P2F program has been strong, with ATSG already securing deposits for leases on half of the 29 aircraft under conversion. Industry analysts predict that the addition of these freighters will strengthen ATSG’s competitive edge, particularly in express cargo and international logistics operations.

“This investment underscores our long-term commitment to providing modern, fuel-efficient, and highly capable freighter aircraft to our customers worldwide,” Berger added.

A New Era for Cargo Aviation

With its first A330P2F deliveries set for 2025, ATSG is reinforcing its position as a key player in the global air cargo market. This transition to Airbus freighters signals a broader industry trend, as operators seek more cost-effective and environmentally sustainable solutions for air freight transport.

As ATSG continues its expansion, the A330P2F program is expected to play a crucial role in shaping the future of mid-sized freighter operations. The logistics industry will be closely watching how these aircraft integrate into ATSG’s fleet and contribute to enhancing global supply chains.
