34 76’s and 7 77’s to arrive by 2025. I believe there are 50 more options for 76’s and 23 77’s. Kinda appears flat with rumors of 18 MD’s being parked. Maybe for attrition or possible orders. I guess we’ll see.

Who dafuq said we were parking 18 MDs? Are we furloughing too? These rumors are out of control in negotiations.

You'll see. Trust me. This has nothing to do with negotiations. It is about our business model changing, ESG and the company trying to give into the Wall Street analysts and share holders. Mark my words. I'll eat them if I'm wrong. But I am not.

With the training SNAFU we're in, the amount of lines being bought up, there's no way we are going to hire soon. We are going to find out April 5th at the Network 2.0 announcement in NYC. We will finally know their plans with Express's air network.
There is one thing that’s certain and will remain true. There is no FedEx without the Airplanes. I’ll not fall for any of their fear mongering tactics. Once negotiations is over, we will hear about all the bright futures and big plans. #NO CONCESSIONS!!! Delta PAY+

If it’s ugly then they better get ready to hire a lot because the 20% they hired the past few years will be looking else where. It goes both directions.

Well, "Raj" may think differently. Maybe in 1985 under Fred Smith. It appears today's Raj "FedEx" is Express, Ground, and Freight. It also appears "Express" is a thorn in their side, if my negative pessimistic self reads the slide they way I read it

"weakness at Express" could have been worded to say "challenges in the marketplace faced by Express" etc etc

Express and ground often flip flop over time. Very cyclical depending on demand and oil etc. i think there will be changes but they aren’t going to re invent the business. Im not overly concerned, in Boeings express freight market outlook the next 20 years it essentially forecasted to double. Bus driver said they’re testing out scheduling 350
routes too. I personally think they will announce future replacements this year.

When you dig into the balance sheet this is all a bunch of bs. Trying to paint a picture that express is falling off a cliff. Look at the fuel cost between quarters. Look at the revenue and compare. Also it’s comparing a record breaking quarter a year before. Compare it to the same quarter in 2019, 2018, 2017 you will see the light.

Part of DRIVE will be about shifting express, freight, and ground into one FedEx, deploying “Digital assets” to make this all possible will DRIVE efficiency throughout the entire express network, along with replacing older more expensive aircraft to operate (MD’s) with newer more efficient aircraft (new type), 767 and 777. The remaining MD’s and the ones parked will be available to “flex” the network in the event of increased demand.

I’ve never seen a truck drive across ponds. Ground and Freight cannot work without Express
