This is absolutely false. Amazon packages do not travel on USPS planes or USPS transportation, except for the final delivery by the carriers. Amazon has many distribution centers all across the country and they transport their items to their distribution centers. Amazon uses their own trucks to deliver their packages directly to the local Post Offices. That is why the Postal Service gives Amazon large discounts - because the only handling that the Postal Service does it the final delivery.
