FedEx adds 567,000kg weekly trans-Pacific capacity through new routings

FedEx has added weekly trans-Pacific capacity through new routings linking Asia-Pacific hubs and Anchorage with U.S. gateways, including Dallas-Fort Worth.

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 added capacity operates through three routing variations. These connect FedEx's Asia Pacific hub in Guangzhou and sub-regional hubs in Shanghai and Osaka with its gateway in Clark, the Philippines, via Anchorage, Alaska, to the FedEx World Hub in Memphis, Tennessee.

Businesses in Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam and Hong Kong can access the additional U.S.-bound capacity through connections via Clark and Shanghai, FedEx said.

The service uses Boeing 777F aircraft five times a week. FedEx expects the flights to support customers in advanced industrial manufacturing, AI infrastructure and premium e-commerce as demand rises.

New Dallas-Fort Worth connection

The enhanced network also introduces a five-times-weekly connection for Asia Pacific customers to Dallas-Fort Worth via Anchorage. FedEx describes Dallas-Fort Worth as one of the leading U.S. technology and data-center markets, giving the region an additional gateway.

Salil Chari, president of FedEx Asia Pacific, said global supply chains are becoming more interconnected, particularly in advanced manufacturing, AI-related industries and premium e-commerce. He said the capacity addition comes as customers prepare for higher shipping volumes ahead of the year-end peak season.

Chari said businesses need dependable access to capacity, speed and global connectivity to serve customers and maintain supply-chain flow. 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.
