[QUOTE="AirTechSpec, post: 595437, member: 5232"] Whatever isn't efficient will be used less. Domestic air business is at risk because you can get the same stuff by ground if you want to wait a few days. We charge a premium price for air to get a small increase in delivery speed. I believe our air business will slowly migrate to majority international business, where the extra cost can be justified by the MUCH slower shipping times via water. In essence, in inter-continental situations air shipping has no practical competition for small-volume, time-sensitive products. [/QUOTE]
