You have a domestic 767/737 operation left. At least you have some West Coast flying. Nice job Teamster negotiators!
So many experts on here that can predict the future. Lol
The original 4 777s that Southern has operated for over 9 years are still owned by Oak Hill (the previous Southern owner prior to Atlas). DHL leases those. Titan (Atlas) owns the next 3. One of those is an “operational spare”. DHL only “owns” our latest 2.
Additionally, Titan “owns” 5 other 777s that are currently leased to other airlines (AeroLogic & TNT). Southern/Atlas will be in the DHL 777 game for a long time.
