UPS: Likely No Major Wilmington Impact Until Next Year - WOHIO
One of the big questions about DHL's proposal to hire United Parcel Service to fly its express delivery packages nationwide is how soon it will start taking away jobs from Wilmington, from where the ABX Air and ASTAR Air Cargo airlines now fly DHL's U.S. cargo.
Ohio officials estimate that a DHL shift to
UPS will cost at least 8,000 jobs at DHL's Wilmington air freight hub, a major regional employer. A
UPS spokesman said it could be "well into next year" before any changes are noticeable.
