UPS has announced that it has retired its MD-11 fleet. The aircraft type is currently grounded pending inspections following the deadly November crash in Louisville. In its fourth quarter earnings report the company said, “UPS accelerated its fleet modernization plans, completing the retirement of its MD-11 fleet during the fourth quarter of 2025.” The gap in UPS’ operations left by the MD-11 grounding and retirement will be filled by new deliveries of the 767 freighter and contract flights.
With an average age of 30.8 years, the UPS MD-11 fleet was already slated for retirement as new 767 freighters joined the fleet, but post-crash grounding brought those plans forward. At the moment, UPS has 26 MD-11 aircraft parked at 15 airport in the United States and Canada. The carrier has not said how or when any of those jets may make their way to a final location. You can see the table below for the current location of UPS’ MD-11 fleet.
