FedEx has expanded its trans-Pacific network with an additional 567,000 kilograms of weekly capacity between Asia Pacific and the United States. The capacity is being added through three routing variations that connect FedEx’s Asia Pacific hub in Guangzhou and its sub-regional hubs in Shanghai and Osaka with its Clark gateway in the Philippines, before flights continue via Anchorage, Alaska, to the FedEx World Hub in Memphis, Tennessee.
The new five-times-weekly Boeing 777F service is expected to give businesses in Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam and Hong Kong additional access to the United States through connections at Clark and Shanghai. FedEx said the capacity is aimed at supporting advanced industrial manufacturing, AI infrastructure and premium e-commerce as customer demand rises.
FedEx is also introducing a five-times-weekly connection for Asia Pacific customers to Dallas–Fort Worth via Anchorage. The company described Dallas–Fort Worth as one of the leading technology and data-center markets in the United States, adding that the route provides another gateway to that market.
The three routing variations combine FedEx’s Asia Pacific hub, its sub-regional hubs and its Philippine gateway into trans-Pacific flows via Anchorage. The Memphis and Dallas–Fort Worth connections provide the U.S. gateways for the added capacity, while the Asian network points include Guangzhou, Shanghai, Osaka and Clark.
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 additional capacity comes at a critical time as customers prepare for higher shipping volumes ahead of the year-end peak season.
Chari added that businesses need reliable access to capacity, speed and global connectivity to serve customers and keep supply chains moving. According to the company, the additional flights strengthen links between Asia Pacific and key U.S. markets, including Dallas–Fort Worth, while supporting growth across semiconductors, technology and AI-driven industries.
The update brings together FedEx’s Guangzhou hub, its Shanghai and Osaka sub-regional hubs and its Clark gateway in the Philippines. For customers in Southeast Asia and Hong Kong, the added capacity is accessible through connections at Clark and Shanghai, which feed into the broader trans-Pacific routings via Anchorage.
By adding five weekly frequencies, the service increases scheduled capacity on the routes, with Anchorage acting as the transit point before the U.S. hubs. The new capacity is not tied to a single Asian origin: FedEx cites customers in Southeast Asia and Hong Kong, while the routing variations draw on Guangzhou, Shanghai and Osaka.
