UPS BFI-BWI Questions
 
Hello!

I am scheduled to jumpseat on UPS from BFI-BWI via SDF later next week.

Could someone please answer these questions for me?

1) Where do I go at BFI?
2) How do I get from the cargo area to the terminal at BWI other than taxi cab? Is there a physical address for UPS cargo area that I can provide to a cab company to take me to the terminal?

Thank you!

Why do this to yourself? Take the real airlines where you don't have to deal with all these unknowns?

As for BFI...just look for the most rusted out trailer and that's our joint. No joke.

Ameriflight next door looks more presentable....yes..the fly by night 135 outfit believes more in corporate image than these UPS 'tards.

You will have to take a cab in BWI. As far as BFI, most cab companies know where the UPS Air Cargo facility is.

I know we have many gateways that use trailers, but BFI ain't one of them, unless you are counting the security trailer. The gateway itself is a step up from the old condemned rat trap the airport kicked us out of a few years ago.

The few times I've been there I've only seen a rusted out trailer...didn't see anything else around it....other than people sorting the stuff out in the cold rain.

But at any rate....whatever form it may be..I am sure it looks like a semi-dump...like the rest of this company.

UPSpilott: I've "creeped" on this forum for many years now. I must say you are one of the most negative disgruntled individuals to post. If UPS has wronged you so much, I'm sure you could resign your IPA numberfor another. Just saying.

Not as much as they've wronged the 109.....and semi-wronged the bottom 300...

I have never met a happy UPS guy on the line in the short time I've been here...Since you like it so much.....I must ask....did you enjoy getting hired as a captain?

YOU DO know they furloughed, right??????

just saying....

Hired as plumber in the mid 90's. IPA guy.
Yes, I'm aware UPS furloughed 109 of our IPA brothers. Felt it was a poor decision considering UPS was making big money, but all large corporate american companies act this way, share holders first.
You must be hangin with the wrong crowd if you only know disgruntled people here. I make $300,000/yr, worked under 10 days in December ( peak time here ), A plan 1%, B plan 12%, unused sick pay paid out in January, premium health care,.......
Yeah, there's jacked up things here, but in all, it's been a pretty good ride for most.
Again, you can always check out other airline jobs if this place isn't for you.
