FedEx has added 567,000 kilograms of weekly capacity to its trans-Pacific network, expanding air cargo links between Asia Pacific and the United States, the company said.
The extra lift is delivered through three routing variations. These connect the FedEx Asia Pacific hub in Guangzhou, its sub-regional hubs in Shanghai and Osaka, and its gateway in Clark, the Philippines, before continuing via Anchorage, Alaska, to the FedEx World Hub in Memphis, Tennessee.
Anchorage serves as the trans-Pacific stop on those routings, while Memphis is the network's world hub; Clark and Shanghai are the connection points named for Southeast Asian and Hong Kong traffic.
Access for Southeast Asia and Hong Kong
Businesses in Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam, as well as Hong Kong, can reach the United States through connections via Clark and Shanghai, according to FedEx.
The service is operated five times a week with Boeing 777F freighters, the company said.
FedEx said the five-times-weekly 777F service is expected to help customers in advanced industrial manufacturing, AI infrastructure and premium e-commerce access additional capacity as demand rises.
New Dallas–Fort Worth connection
The network change also introduces a five-times-weekly connection for Asia Pacific customers to Dallas–Fort Worth via Anchorage. FedEx describes the route as an additional gateway to one of the United States' leading technology and data centre markets.
Salil Chari, president of FedEx Asia Pacific, said global supply chains are becoming increasingly interconnected, particularly across 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, and that businesses need reliable access to capacity, speed and global connectivity to serve their customers and keep supply chains moving.
Chari added that the additional flights strengthen links between Asia Pacific and key US markets, including Dallas–Fort Worth, and support growth across semiconductors, technology and AI-driven industries.
Capacity, routings and what was not disclosed
The announcement centres on capacity and routings rather than on new city pairs alone: the three variations and the Dallas–Fort Worth link are presented as ways to move Asia Pacific volumes into US hubs through Anchorage. FedEx frames the timing around expected seasonal demand. The company did not publish expected volumes, aircraft utilisation, transit times or commercial terms for the added flights, and did not say how the 567,000 kilograms are split across the three routing variations or the Dallas–Fort Worth link.
The additions build on connections through Anchorage rather than adding nonstop services, matching the gateway structure described in the announcement.
According to the company, the capacity is being added as customers prepare for increased shipping volumes ahead of the year-end peak season.
