Nice try there Hillary.

The main reason there are so few ex-Military hired is because there are so few that want to come to UPS. They are all going to FDX, AMR, UAL, and DL.

So UPS is hiring the others to fill the classes.

Out of curiosity...
There seems to be an urban legend around that DAL, AMR, etc are not too keen on picking up american pilots that fly overseas (forced expats), curious if there's any of that at UPS...

Thx!

Since 2014 there have been pilots hired from Cathay, Emirates, and some Chinese airline off the top of my head.

FWIW, the Cathay guys were all based in the US. None were living as expats in HKG.

We have a whole bunch here at UPS.

In my new hire class alone back in 2007, we had two guys...one at JAL (lived in Japan), and one at Cathay (lived in HK). I've ran into many more throughout my 10 years at Brown.

Your class had the superstar whom became a management pilot. And no, he was a cathay cargo guy. US based.
