FedEx has expanded its trans-Pacific air cargo network with an additional 567,000 kilograms of weekly capacity between Asia Pacific and the United States. The addition raises the carrier's weekly capacity on the route and is aimed at freight moving between the two regions.
The capacity is provided through three routing variations. These connect FedEx's Asia Pacific hub in Guangzhou and its sub-regional hubs in Shanghai and Osaka with the company's gateway in Clark, the Philippines. From there, the routings pass through Anchorage, Alaska, before reaching the FedEx World Hub in Memphis, Tennessee.
The three routings use Guangzhou, Shanghai and Osaka as Asia Pacific origins or sub-regional hubs, with Clark acting as a gateway before the trans-Pacific leg through Anchorage. Memphis is the US hub for those routings, while the Dallas–Fort Worth service offers a separate US destination via the same Alaska stop.
Businesses in Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam, as well as Hong Kong, can access the additional US-bound capacity through connections via Clark and Shanghai, according to the company. The structure gives shippers in those markets more than one path into the Memphis hub.
Five weekly Boeing 777F services
The new service operates five times a week with Boeing 777F aircraft. FedEx expects it to help businesses in advanced industrial manufacturing, AI infrastructure and premium e-commerce obtain additional capacity to meet rising customer demand. The 567,000-kilogram figure is a weekly capacity measure, not an annual total.
The enhanced network also introduces a five-times-weekly connection for Asia Pacific customers to Dallas–Fort Worth via Anchorage. FedEx identifies Dallas–Fort Worth as one of the leading technology and data center markets in the United States, giving shippers an additional US gateway alongside the Memphis routing.
Capacity ahead of peak season
Salil Chari, president of FedEx Asia Pacific, said global supply chains are becoming more interconnected, especially across advanced manufacturing, AI-related industries and premium e-commerce. He said the added capacity arrives at an important point as customers prepare for higher shipping volumes before 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. He added that the additional flights strengthen links between Asia Pacific and key US markets, including Dallas–Fort Worth, and support growth in semiconductors, technology and AI-driven industries.
The expansion adds capacity on existing trans-Pacific connections while creating another route to a major US technology hub. For shippers in the listed Southeast Asian markets and Hong Kong, the new services provide additional options through Clark and Shanghai. The announcement does not break down the 567,000 kilograms by route, market or customer segment, nor does it specify aircraft allocations beyond the five-times-weekly Boeing 777F service.
