About the company

National Air Cargo Group, Inc., doing business as National Airlines, is a for-profit global air cargo and passenger carrier headquartered in Orlando, Florida, that provides domestic and international charter air transportation services to the Department of Defense as an exclusive prime contractor on full-and-open competitive vehicles with no small business set-asides. The vendor is a child of National Air Cargo, Inc., and operates exclusively as a prime contractor across its federal portfolio—all 3,670 awards are prime contracts with zero subcontract activity.

National Airlines' federal footprint is concentrated almost entirely in Air Mobility Command (AMC), which accounts for 3,142 awards (86 percent of the total) and $11.09 billion in combined potential value (74 percent of the $14.92 billion portfolio). The company provides domestic charter air transportation, Civil Reserve Air Fleet (CRAF) services, and heavy cargo lift operations across domestic military installations and forward-deployed locations worldwide including Kuwait, Qatar, Japan, Saudi Arabia, Poland, Jordan, Djibouti, Germany, Greece, Norway, and the United Kingdom. The top five customer agencies by combined potential value are AMC ($11.09 billion), the Department of the Army Surface Deployment and Distribution Command ($2.12 billion), the Department of the Air Force ($856.2 million), the Office of the Secretary of Defense ($787.5 million), and US Transportation Command ($28.1 million).

The vendor holds position on five primary indefinite-delivery vehicles. The largest is the International Charter Airlift Services in Support of the Civil Reserve Air Fleet IDIQ, awarded October 1, 2024, with a $289.996 million ceiling and 869 task orders totaling $953 million in combined potential value through September 30, 2030. A second CRAF IDIQ—International Charter Airlift Services in support of the Civil Reserve Air Fleet—carries a separate $129.3 million ceiling with 230 task orders worth $267.7 million. The vendor also holds the Global Heavyweight Services IDIQ managed by the Office of the Secretary of Defense, valued at $1.5 billion. Two additional vehicles—HTC71119DCC40 (881 task orders, $120.9 million) and HTC71124DCC16 (371 task orders, $71.4 million)—support domestic and international charter operations. Representative work includes firm fixed-price delivery orders ranging from approximately $30,000 to $13.2 million, with recent examples including a $5.203 million CRAF order to Orlando (October 1, 2025), a $3.093 million CRAF order to Japan (October 7, 2025), a $2.117 million domestic charter order to Norfolk (September 29, 2025), and a $1.596 million CRAF order to Japan (January 14, 2026).

Activity has declined year over year—495 awards in 2022 to 155 in 2026 (year-to-date through July 26)—but dollars obligated across all awards total $2.56 billion (17 percent of combined potential value), indicating substantial execution of awarded capacity. The vendor's capability portfolio spans nonscheduled chartered passenger air transportation (2,610 awards), scheduled freight air transportation (483 awards), and nonscheduled chartered freight transportation (476 awards), with top PSC categories being passenger air charter (1,879 awards), air charter transportation (1,216 awards), and air freight (567 awards). National Airlines maintains no subsidiary relationships and operates a fleet of wide-body aircraft, positioning itself as a sole-source provider of flexible airlift capacity across the Department of Defense's global logistics and contingency requirements, with work performed at domestic and international locations spanning Europe, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific theaters.
