I’m sure Donald has a far better understanding of FedEx’s system, but yes, they have regional hubs now along with the Mothership in Memphis. Indianapolis has been a big FedEx hub for years, and has expanded a number of times. I think DeMoines is a big UPS hub. Lakeland, FL, the airport just east of me that hosts the EAA’s “Sun ‘n Fun” fly-in, is a hub for Amazon’s air cargo operations.
They’re all over the place anymore. -D > On Sep 27, 2023, at 2:48 PM, Kaleb Striplin via Mercedes > <mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: > > Yes nothing is the same as before.
