FedEx expands Asia-US capacity ahead of peak season to support semiconductors, AI supply chains, premium e-commerce, and advanced industrial manufacturing

Federal Express Corporation, one of the world’s largest express transportation companies, has expanded its trans-Pacific network with an additional 567,000 kilograms (1.25 million pounds) of weekly capacity between Asia Pacific and the United States. The new five-times-weekly Boeing 777F service is expected to help businesses across advanced industrial manufacturing, semiconductor production, AI infrastructure, and premium e-commerce access additional capacity to support rising customer demand during one of the busiest trading periods of the year.

The new service operates through three routing variations connecting our Asia Pacific hub in Guangzhou and sub-regional hubs in Shanghai, China; Osaka, Japan; with a gateway in Clark, the Philippines, via Anchorage, Alaska, to the FedEx World Hub in Memphis, Tennessee.

Businesses across Southeast Asia, including Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam, as well as Hong Kong, can access additional capacity to the United States through connections via Clark and Shanghai. This expanded network provides customers flexibility, capacity, and connectivity to reach U.S. customers and respond quickly to changing customer demands.

The enhanced network also introduces a new five-times-weekly connection for Asia Pacific customers to Dallas–Fort Worth via Anchorage, providing an additional gateway to one of the United States’ leading technology and data centre markets. The connection strengthens access between Asia Pacific manufacturing hubs and businesses across the Dallas-Fort Worth region, supporting industries that rely on the movement of high-value, time-sensitive shipments such as semiconductors, servers, and other critical components supporting the expansion of artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure.
