FedEx has expanded its trans-Pacific network with an additional 567,000 kilograms of weekly capacity between Asia Pacific and the United States, the company said.
The new capacity runs through three routing variations. These link FedEx’s Asia Pacific hub in Guangzhou and sub-regional hubs in Shanghai and Osaka with its gateway in Clark, the Philippines, before flights continue via Anchorage, Alaska, to the FedEx World Hub in Memphis, Tennessee.
Customers in Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam and Hong Kong can access the additional U.S.-bound capacity through connections via Clark and Shanghai, FedEx said.
Five weekly 777F flights
The service uses a Boeing 777F and operates five times a week. FedEx says the capacity is expected to support demand from advanced industrial manufacturing, AI infrastructure and premium e-commerce.
The expanded network also adds a five-times-weekly connection for Asia Pacific customers to Dallas–Fort Worth via Anchorage. FedEx describes the Texas market as a leading U.S. technology and data-center hub and says the link provides an additional gateway to it.
Peak-season pressure
Salil Chari, president of FedEx Asia Pacific, said global supply chains are becoming more interconnected, especially in advanced manufacturing, AI-related industries and premium e-commerce. He said the added capacity comes at a critical time as customers prepare for higher shipping volumes ahead of the year-end peak season.
Chari said businesses need reliable access to capacity, speed and global connectivity to serve customers and keep supply chains moving. According to Chari, the additional flights strengthen links between Asia Pacific and key U.S. markets, including Dallas–Fort Worth, and support growth in semiconductors, technology and AI-driven industries.
