After receiving its fourth aircraft, a B737-800(BCF), 7 AIR (R7, Miami International) is reportedly seeking to double its fleet in 2026 by adding four more freighters, according to Carlos Cock, chief executive of parent entity Xtreme Aviation.
In an interview with Aviation Week, Cock said 7 AIR plans to add four more B737-800 freighters next year. “That is our preferred aircraft, and I think for the first two years our plan is to remain with that one type of aircraft.”
He added that currently all the fleet is on lease, but 7 AIR is looking to purchase some future arrivals, “maybe in the third quarter of next year… but for the immediate needs we will continue to use our leased aircraft.”
ch-aviation data shows 7 AIR operates two B737-800(BCF)s and two B737-800(SF)s. The company started scheduled cargo operations from Miami in April and later launched its first international service in September. It serves destinations such as Guatemala City, Managua, San José Juan Santamaría, San Juan Luis Muñoz Marin, and Antigua.
Xtreme Aviation Holding also owns Xtreme Aviation, LLC, an FAA-certified Part 145 repair station; the lessor Aventus Air Leasing II; 7 Air Cargo, LLC, an air freight forwarder and consolidator; K&J Aviation LLC, an MRO company; and AeroThrust MRO, a certificated Part 145 repair station.
