L'il J.Seinfeld said:UPS is an almost guarantee whereas SWA is just a good bet. 20 years from now UPS will most certainly be here. With SWA anything could happen. Look at Delta/United 5-7 years ago and look at them now. SWA is entirely different, but the comparison is still valid. The pax industry is fickle (sp).
UPS doesn't need airplanes to do what they do.
Basically....wrong.
UPS did own many of the airplanes prior to '88 and used contractors for the aircrews. While it is true that a union busting technique might be to contract out their flying, UPS needs airplanes as much as trucks to do what they do. The airline is by far the most profitable part of the company and UPS must offer time definite air freight to compete with the likes of FDX and DHL.
hoover said:I don't know if they "need" to compete with FDX or DHL. They are overnight freight companies. UPS does a lot of "non-overnight" delivery business. I don't know of anyone else who is doing that. It would certainly impact their business if they got out of the overnight delivery stuff, but not to the point making them unprofitable.
Just my opinion anyway
Flechas said:Still, the lifestyle is way better at UPS, at least that's what I think. If you have a family and only want to fly in the 48, stay with SWA.
What the He!! would you know about the "lifestyle" of a UPS pilot.
