  1. The answer is utilization. Most of the time their plane is sitting on the airport doing nothing. With less tight schedule they can send the package during the time when the planes are doing nothing. So essentially you are just paying the fuel not the plane itself. The planes are expensive thats why they choose cheaper more fuel hungry planes instead of the more expensive fuel effecient model. With low utilization the economics changes and the cost of the plane is more important than the cost of fuel.
