Are air mail stamps still made

A nostalgic question!

While the term "air mail" is still widely recognized, the concept of air mail stamps as we knew it in the past has largely disappeared. Here's why:

In the early days of aviation, air mail was a special service that required a separate set of stamps to indicate that a letter was being transported by air. These stamps were designed to be used exclusively for air mail and were often marked with a distinctive "A" or "AM" prefix.

However, with the advent of modern postal services and the widespread use of airmail as a standard service, the need for separate air mail stamps has largely disappeared. Today, most postal services use a single set of stamps for all mail, regardless of whether it's sent by air or surface.

That being said, some postal services still issue special stamps or commemorative issues that feature air mail themes or designs. These stamps are often produced in limited quantities and are intended to be collectible items rather than used for everyday mail.

Examples of recent air mail-themed stamps include:

While these stamps may not be used for everyday mail, they are still produced as a way to celebrate the history and nostalgia of air mail.
