As an outsider (I don’t start for 2 weeks), it seems to me that UPS runs much leaner on the air side than FedEx. While the backbone of FedEx is the airplanes and the Express portion of the business, UPS seems to have the minimum fleet size they absolutely need to get by with. You guys would know better than me obviously, but there doesn’t appear to be the room for downsize that may be available to FedEx. I feel like the airplane business models used by FedEx and UPS are quite different leaving FedEx much more susceptible to the issues raised in the article. But what the hell do I know.
