Perhaps it is tied to the 11 777s that DHL and Lufthansa are buying.

It would be nice if ABX got those 777s, but I think Polar (49% owned by DHL) has something to do with this

Widebodies to the west of us, Widebodies to the east of us

Maybe the PAC 47's will go west to Asia and DLH will cross the Pond. We already know that DHL wants a 47 in RIV. Just guessing.

Title is not very good.
"DHL departure will leave NWA high and dry"

NWA has a very profitable cargo business and did so well before DHL. I am sure they will do just fine without DHL in the future.

I guess the fact that fuel costs have doubled since they last did they own ops without guaranteed loads and an old fleet may have an effect on their future. NW has commented that their not sure where their going from here. On their own, they'll need fleet modernization.
