Due to a delay in transitioning the leased aircraft onto Star’s European operating certificate, Star decided to seek temporary authority from the Danish government to wet lease (plane and aircrew) a B-767 airframe from ATSG."

"Temporary authority was granted by the Danish Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) for ABX Air to fly the Shannon route from January 12-March 31. Sometime in March, Star plans to transition the flying from ABX pilots to its own (European Union) crews.
UPS should have communicated these events to us beforehand,” said IPA President Bob Travis. According to Travis, had UPS provided timely notice, the Association would have requested UPS to seek regulatory authority, through Star, to operate with IPA crews. Whether or not UPS would have been granted such authority is unknown."

2) UPS displacing IPA crewmembers for an equivalent amount of time as the ABX crews are operating the route. Details will be worked through and announced once the LOA is finalized.

“While we would have preferred to have had the opportunity to fly the route ourselves for the January-March time period, the Company’s agreement to displace IPA crews is appropriate and appreciated,” said Travis."
