So the IAH and EWR are not the normal DHL shift-a-roo? I noticed that they are coming up on our schedule but we just lost MSP to Kallitta and thought it was the usually shifting of the deck chairs every year or two but if not that is sad news. Duey, Huey, and Luey are a piece of work.

There isn't any way to spin this as good news, but we are still doing IAH,it's just paired with HRL now. Since HRL was formerly paired with MMMY, I'm assuming that signals MMMY will be the next Mexico route to go to Aerounion. MSY usually had less than 10k lbs of freight both inbound and outbound and didn't really need to be on a 767- my guess is one of the feeder ops will pick it up. Rumor is EWR is going to ACC, which seems odd but maybe they are going to start sending more through JFK- I really have no idea.

All that said, absolutely do not come to ABX right now if you have any other options (including a commuter... I never would have said that 18 months ago). Everything here is toxic.

We are only doing IAH-HRL on Saturdays as we have been. We are continuing to do MTY on weekdays.

I'd like to congratulate those who finally over a year (some almost a year and a half), got a line next month.

On Saturday ABX has been flying Flt 315 CVG-IAH-HRL for quite a while...not a new trip or reroute. I did not see any mention about CVG-HRL-MMY.

Pretty sure we can kill this thread...ABX won’t be hiring anymore, and if you have a class date and haven’t cut ties with your current employer...

Cvg-hrl-mmmy has been a long time run.... I am not the guy that sits and studies the routes (I try to pay as little attention to work as possible besides flying the airplane and occasionally wading into the **** show on APC) but I seriously doubt we are doing two different HRL stops.

Im gonna level with you- I have no idea what you're talking about. I can tell you I have done cvg-hrl-mmmy and laid over in MMMY well over a dozen times and cvg-iah-hrl is a brand new flight that no one has seen until this bid period. (It may have happened a few times in April, I dunno). There hasn't been any ABX layover in HRL in years, except a few peak season oddities as add ons.

You nailed it...you dunno! The letter says...In addition, aircraft 787AX will be redeployed to DHL Middle East service after its upcoming C-check starting on June 4. As a result, ABX will discontinue operating the 518/118 IAH-MSY route. The last operation is currently planned to be Friday, June 1, after which another carrier will operate the route. The day 6 CVG-IAH-HRL & day 7 HRL-CVG routes 315/316 will continue to operate as normal.....key words...operate as normal. I personally have flown this trip 4 times over a 6 month period.
