[QUOTE="MAKAVELI, post: 2694663, member: 43825"] You think it would be that simple but it isn't. To do it on a mass scale nationality just doesn't make sense. They really have handcuffed themselves keeping both opcos separate. They save a grip of $ on the ground side but are pretty much locked in keeping a fulltime workforce at Xpress to make it as efficient as possible. That's where the 2day and Express Saver come in to fill the gaps. This is where UPS has the edge. Their systems are combined to allow them the flexibility to adjust to volume and customer demands. Anyone who believes the Express system can survive and flourish with just overnight freight is both ignorant and foolish. [/QUOTE]
