[QUOTE="TechGrrl, post: 671805, member: 4932"] Uh, no, actually. IF UPS were to shut down every other air hub except Worldport in Louisville, they would do so because it creates the absolute cheapest package handling network. The big cost is the AIR FEED, not the sorting, and a single, all-points hub is the cheapest air network. The fact that the automated Worldport is the cheapest, quickest, most reliable sorting facility is gravy. And, by the way, UPS must keep Ontario open, as well, because there is no other way to meet West Coast service commitments. So, the smallest number of air hubs is two. [/QUOTE]
