UA essentially got out of the cargo business when the (profitable) pre-merger CO cargo operation was outsourced to match the UA side of the house. At a time when DL and AA are actively seeking to grow their respective cargo operations, UA considers it non-core and, like everything else at this company, is a target of aggressive cost cutting.
