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 increase is intended to support customers as shipping demand rises.
The new service operates through three routing variations. These connect FedEx's Asia Pacific hub in Guangzhou and its sub-regional hubs in Shanghai, China, and Osaka, Japan, as well as its gateway in Clark, the Philippines, through Anchorage, Alaska, to the FedEx World Hub in Memphis, Tennessee.
The routing structure gives the carrier multiple Asian access points before the trans-Pacific leg. Guangzhou serves as the regional hub, while Shanghai and Osaka are sub-regional hubs and Clark acts as a gateway in the Philippines. From those points, the network moves through Anchorage to Memphis.
Businesses in Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam, as well as Hong Kong, can access additional capacity to the United States through connections via Clark and Shanghai. The arrangement extends the new capacity beyond the hub cities themselves and links Southeast Asian and Hong Kong shippers to the U.S. market through the expanded routings.
The service uses Boeing 777F aircraft five times a week. FedEx expects it to help businesses across advanced industrial manufacturing, AI infrastructure and premium e-commerce access additional capacity to support rising customer demand.
New Dallas–Fort Worth link
The enhanced network also introduces a five-times-weekly connection for Asia Pacific customers to Dallas–Fort Worth via Anchorage. FedEx calls this an additional gateway to one of the leading technology and data center markets in the United States.
Salil Chari, president of FedEx Asia Pacific, said global supply chains are becoming more interconnected, particularly across advanced manufacturing, AI-related industries and premium e-commerce. He said the capacity addition 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, and support growth across semiconductors, technology and AI-driven industries.
The announcement ties the capacity increase to several customer segments. Advanced manufacturing, AI infrastructure and premium e-commerce are named as the main areas expected to benefit, while the year-end peak season is presented as the immediate timing factor.
