True but please re-read my post. I was making a DHL - Amazon comparison. So I was using Wikipedia summary of DHL owned and/or controlled airlines - not Amazon’s.

I would put money on the DHL model. Amazon does not want to have to negotiate with a unionized workforce.

If there is something that will only be doing Amazon, my bet would be ATI as they pretty much have gotten all of the new flying from Amazon from here on out it seems. I also firmly believe you will see a attempted 777 expansion on the DHL side at Atlas once the Arbitrator is finished with the contract. Key word is attempted.
