The new service includes an international express service called UPS Express Freight, which the company said will triple its express routes. The service will offer overnight to three-day delivery. For less time-sensitive shipments, the company will launch UPS Air Freight Direct _ a one- to three-day service, and UPS Air Freight Consolidated _ a three- to five-day service. Both “airport to airport” services are available worldwide. Freight shipments may move on either UPS or third-party aircraft.
