They’ll never remove the “Express”, costs money...cheapos will let it peel off over time…

For what it’s worth I think you are right but I’m not so sure about the airbus part. This drive push and network 2.0 sounds like they are planning on bringing the entire network together transforming FedEx into 1 brand to increase efficiency and profits. They talk about deploying digital assets… I thing they have the tech now to do this… Guess we will see april 5.

I try to avoid AOC and as such I’m not up on all the rumors. What’s everyone hearing about the expected bid? Last I heard was that wonderful pre-Christmas message saying thanks for being away from home for the Holidays… our thanks to you is announcing a future announcement of closing bases and holding a re-alignment bid. Been crickets ever since. Was it just a hollow threat to scare us into signing a substandard TA that they hoped the NC would accept and send to vote?

It’s been quiet, waiting to see what this April 5th is all about. It’s a pilots market right now.
