Default DHL vs FEDEX / UPS

I see a lot of Fedex / Ups threads here, but not too many for DHL. Is DHL in the same scale as Fedex or Ups? (pay, schedule, aircraft)
Anyone out there that enjoys DHL?
Thanks

DHL doesn't have their own airline in the US. They use ACMI carriers.

Check the airline pages for Astar and ABX for pay and aircraft fleet. They are the primary ACMI carriers for DHL in the U.S.

Scheduling rules at both carriers are probably similar to FedEx/UPS. Astar and ABX schedules are mostly domestic flying. Numerous other carriers handle the international flying. For example, Northwest, Lufthansa and Cathay Pacific all have DHL contracts for U.S.-international flights.
