The spokeswoman for the global shipping giant told The Post on Tuesday that UPS follows U.S. and international laws, not public opinion, in determining what it will and won’t ship. "Evil is powerless if the good are unafraid" -- Ronald Reagan "Ignorance of The People gives strength to totalitarians." Want to make just about anything work better? Keep the government as far away from it as possible, then step back and behold the wonderment and goodness. | ||

Maybe UPS will entertain the idea of scheduling a passenger flight or two each week to Africa (hunters only on board). Sounds like so far they are one of the few "good guys" left out there. Larry Sellers SCI (International) Life Member | |||

You an always put have your trophies shipped via a .....ship! Cheaper anyway, and what's an extra 3 weeks or so when you've already waited a year? | |||

Yes, that always amazed me, that we wait 4-6 months while they play around with all the processing and paperwork for our trophy animals, then ship them by air. | |||

Sea shipping can be a real hassle if you've not dealt with the port. I would hire someone to deal with that mess. | |||

The CEO at UPS is a close friend and former neighbor of an SCI board member. I suspect this has some impact. | |||

Some common Sense at last. Nothing common about it actually. | |||

I don't know if they still do it but in the past I believe they did take passengers on some flights. | |||

Now that UPS is a public company they could be subject to some activism. We need to be vigilant. | |||

It was reported on 20/20 last night that UPS was no longer shipping trophies, but the UPS website says nothing about such a ban. Karl Evans | |||

Karl, If you have any sway with UPS and they are still shipping trophies I would recommend that UPS go after 20/20 for a retraction. ______________________ DRSS ______________________ Hunt Reports 2015 His & Her Leopards with Derek Littleton of Luwire Safaris - http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/2971090112 2015 Trophy Bull Elephant with CMS http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/1651069012 DIY Brooks Range Sheep Hunt 2013 - http://forums.accuratereloadin...901038191#9901038191 Zambia June/July 2012 with Andrew Baldry - Royal Kafue http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/7971064771 Zambia Sept 2010- Muchinga Safaris http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/4211096141 Namibia Sept 2010 - ARUB Safaris http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/6781076141 | |||

They did, for a short time do vacation charters to resort destinations. AFAIK UPS has not done any passenger service for quite some time. The only people who can ride on a freighter are certified couriers, company employees, certain law enforcement personal and military inspectors. | |||
