[QUOTE="Myort, post: 785850, member: 25462"] I have worked in ramp and hub ops and I don't think it will be possible to fully move E2 and XS frt over to ground. Normally, that freight moves on the day sorts and gets to the end locations the night before. Some of it is trucked and some is flown to the end locations. Problem is, some of it gets rolled over to the night sorts and some cities will get alot of E2 freight along with their P1/SO on the plane in the morning, all mixed in the same cans. There is no way this freight can be seperated out when it is mixed in with the P1. I think what you will see though is less XS and E2 freight as customers that shipped it in the past will ship ground instead, since it will be cheaper and in many cases, can get there just as fast.
