AAXICO


AAXICO was an airline based in the United States.

History

AAXICO, the American Air Export and Import Company, was founded in 1946 in Miami Beach, Florida.
AAXICO's initial flight service consisted of five daily flights from New York to Atlantic City geared toward the horse racing industry, with the last flight scheduled to wait until after the last race. By 1956, AAXICO was registered as an all-cargo airline. AAXICO temporarily suspended flight operations on June 30, 1960, in negotiations with Air Line Pilots Association, International. Prior to its merger, AAXICO had a Department of Defense contract to carry 25,000 lbs of cargo daily. Its airline operations ceased in 1966, when they were sold to Saturn Airways.
AAXICO is now an airline support company based in Doral, Florida.
