[QUOTE="hexmurph, post: 5596171, member: 52409"] They built a new hub down the road because DFW metro population has doubled. 10 million people live within the service area of the DFW air gateway. The only gateway location alternative is Alliance Ft worth airport. And UPS has repeatedly determined that is not a viable location. The millions spent on construction and staffing to reopen the dfw night sort was a typical UPS overreaction to percieved volume processing issues at worldport about 7 years ago. Those issues were corrected and now they're trimming the fat at satellite/secondary sorting facilities like the dfw night sort. DFW twilight and sunrise are two of the most profitable sorts in the whole system and the gateway ops at DFW aren't going anywhere anytime soon [/QUOTE]
