DHL shutdown Astar when they got too big for their britches. Why do you think DHL diversifies it's lift with lower cost carriers than ABX?
Amazon uses Uber for deliveries, you really think they are all concerned with service? Amazon has the $$$ to buy and start it's own airline but doesn't want to because it knows that it's cheaper to contract it out and the the competition to get a piece of the Amazon action will be fierce and therefore, driving down Amazon's cost.
DHL and Amazon will get good service from the contractors because the contractors know that if they don't perform they will be replaced. Same goes for the majority of the contractor pilots. They know not to bite the hands that feed them (DHL and Amazon).
The majority of the contractor pilots (IBT 1224) 99+% have spoken.They are obviously NOT worried about the hand. They are hungry.
Everyone else..sorry I fed the Troll.
