The UPS cargo plane crash on Tuesday at the company’s global aviation hub in Kentucky, which killed at least 12, will temporarily disrupt the supply chain and result in some shipping delays. But UPS says it has contingency plans in place and experts say the impact should be cleared up before the peak holiday season. The plane crashed about Tuesday evening as it was departing for Honolulu from UPS Worldport, UPS’ largest shipping hub, at Louisville Muhammad Ali International Airport. Package sorting at the center was halted late Tuesday and the halt continued on Wednesday. Consumers who want to check on their UPS packages can wait to hear from the company or look up tracking details online.
