Hi all, We (Amazon) have made improvements over the last few years to significantly improve our NOC and Peering response times, as well as the time it takes to set up a peering session, whether over IX or direct PNI/SFI.
If you don't get a response from the respective Peering mailing address listed on our PeeringDB https://peeringdb.com/net/1418 , feel free to email me privately and I'll get in touch with the right folks internally.
