Being treated as reserve needs to cost more than a 2-hour premium. Either pay us for EACH change or 200% until back on schedule.

What is it we are trying to do? I am not aware of anything.

Why not both?

Yes, industry leading schedule revision language in C2027(?) is long overdue.

Maybe this will help hiring? Will be interesting to see more details.

*checks calendar

*checks UPS Newsroom and does not yet see a formal press release

*checks Google and sees this news reported by AP, Reuters, CNBC, and multiple other sources

Still not on UPS Newsroom, but BusinessWire is how organizations issue press releases:

UPS and FDX will use its air contract gain & loss as a whipsaw. By our time, it'll be back to FDX. We did our "drive" switch by 2010...

My guess is that this may cause us to buy a few more factory 76 freighters and perhaps expand the day sort some. We’ll know it’s making a real difference if the Friday day sort comes back. Whether it drives hiring probably depends on how the rest of our business is doing.

My postal flying in the past was six day sorts during the week (Kitty Hawk before Fedex got the contract). It will be interesting to see network changes. I agree with above, and also think this will slow the MD parking beyond the P&W planned parking.
