Why make a portion of profits (agreement with DHL), when you keep all of it for yourself? Both UPS and Fedex will be much healthier as a result.

As for who moves DHL international freight, I hope they keep ABX and/or ASTAR. While I would like the extra flying, I would rather see them mitigate some job losses.
