The airline was established in 1985. It was formed as a wholly owned subsidiary of Challenge Air Transport, but this connection was severed in 1986. In June 1999, United Parcel Service agreed to buy the assets of Challenge Air Cargo, excluding the company's name and air operator's certificate . In 2001, Challenge Air Cargo was renamed to 'Centurion Air Cargo'. Centurion Air Cargo was then formed in July 1999, taking over the operating certificate of Challenge Air Cargo[2].
After years of service, Centurion Air Cargo was purchased in 2003 by AMC, and continues to operate successfully as one of the leading dedicated all cargo service providers in Miami Interantional Airport.
