The concern is that UPS may hire a sub-contractor to fly work that should be flown by UPS pilots on our seniority list. There are routes in Europe and Asia, that due to cabotage issues, we cannot fly, and contractors do that for us.

In this case, we have a contractor, Yangtze Express (or something like that), that does our flying intra-China. I think the posts were referring to the possibility of them flying these new flights.

Has anybody come up with an example of Star, Bluebird, Yangtze, or MNG doing a route that we could legally do....OK, except for TLV? I think that there was some monkey business going on at Clark, was that fixed? Anyway, it always pays to be on your toes with this company, but I think we're ok on this one.

On another note, there has been talk in NRT of the Nagoya flying for quite some time. Talk was that it might not be an expansions as much as a realignment out of NRT. It'll be interesting to see how it pans out.
