Sun Country Airlines, a Minneapolis-based commercial air carrier and subsidiary of Minnesota Aviation, LLC, was awarded a delivery order valued at $71.6K on July 17, 2018, for domestic charter air transportation services. The award was issued by the Air Mobility Command, the transportation and logistics branch of the U.S. Air Force, with performance scheduled for completion by July 28, 2018, in Salt Lake City, Utah. This delivery order was structured as a firm fixed-price contract on an unrestricted, competitive basis with no set-aside designation, reflecting Sun Country's capability to compete directly against other certified air carriers in the federal market.
The delivery order was issued under the Domestic Charter Airlift Services 2014-2016 parent contract vehicle, which provides the Air Mobility Command with flexible access to commercial charter airlift capacity for personnel movement, cargo transport, and specialized military logistics requirements. Sun Country's Boeing 737 fleet and established operational capabilities positioned the company as a qualified provider within this acquisition framework, supporting the Department of Defense's broader air transportation and mobility objectives during the specified performance period.
