Sun Country Airlines, a Minneapolis-based commercial air carrier and subsidiary of Minnesota Aviation, LLC, received a $89.6K firm fixed-price delivery order from the U.S. Air Force's Air Mobility Command on January 20, 2017, for domestic charter air transportation services. The delivery order, which was not set-aside and awarded competitively, is scheduled for ultimate completion on January 26, 2017, with performance taking place at Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point in North Carolina. This award represents a task order issued under the Domestic Charter Airlift Services 2014-2016 parent contract vehicle, which provides the Air Mobility Command with flexible access to commercial airlift capacity for personnel movement and related transportation requirements.
Sun Country Airlines has established itself as a critical provider of federal air transportation services, leveraging its Boeing 737 fleet to support Department of Defense operations, homeland security missions, and humanitarian relief efforts. The company's demonstrated capability and competitiveness in federal procurement is evidenced by its subsequent receipt of hundreds of delivery orders and task orders since 2024, including positioning on the Air Mobility Command's $86.8M Civil Reserve Air Fleet International Charter Airlift Services contract and the Office of the Secretary of Defense's $1.5B Global Heavyweight Services contract, both of which extend critical airlift and logistics support across domestic and international locations.
