I have been told that the IPA’s language protecting 7th freedom flying is nothing more than a promise. Is that true? What do your lawyers say? Thanks in advance.
This is not meant to be a shot at you, but it’s beyond laughable UPS would do anything that isn’t contractually enforceable. Anyone making such a claim knows zero about UPS and our contract.
