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 expansion adds weekly capacity for shippers moving goods between the two regions. 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, China, and Osaka, Japan with its gateway in Clark, the Philippines, and the FedEx World Hub in Memphis, Tennessee, via Anchorage, Alaska.
The new service operates five times weekly with Boeing 777F aircraft, according to FedEx, and is part of the carrier’s trans-Pacific network between Asia Pacific and the United States. The carrier said the additional capacity is expected to help businesses in advanced industrial manufacturing, AI infrastructure and premium e-commerce meet rising customer demand. FedEx did not provide a route-by-route allocation of the 567,000 kilograms in the announcement.
Businesses in Southeast Asia, including Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam, as well as Hong Kong, can access the additional capacity to the United States through connections via Clark and Shanghai, FedEx said. Those connections feed into the carrier’s Asia Pacific hub structure before freight crosses the Pacific via Anchorage. The three routing variations use Guangzhou and Shanghai as Asia Pacific connection points, with Osaka and Clark also forming part of the network.
The enhanced network also introduces a new five-times-weekly connection for Asia Pacific customers to Dallas–Fort Worth via Anchorage. FedEx said the link provides an additional gateway to one of the leading technology and data center markets in the United States. The Dallas–Fort Worth service adds a U.S. gateway alongside the Memphis connection for Asia Pacific shippers.
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 increased shipping volumes ahead of 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 U.S. markets, including Dallas–Fort Worth, while supporting growth across semiconductors, technology and AI-driven industries.
FedEx said the new capacity is expected to support customer demand across the listed manufacturing, AI infrastructure and e-commerce segments. The carrier framed the added flights as a way to strengthen Asia Pacific–U.S. connectivity as year-end volumes build. The announcement did not specify volume commitments or performance guarantees.
