Its funny, but there are only two major delivery carriers in the US and they are UPS (TWA) and FedEx (Pan AM). They own the market. Amazon (AA, DL, SW) can dream about trying a delivery service but both UPS (TWA) and FedEx (Pan Am) would match Amazon (AA, DL, SW) delivery prices and kill a start up. Both FedEx (Pan Am) and UPS (TWA) have large revenues outside of Amazon (AA, DL, SW).
