FedEx has announced an increase in its international freight flights from Qingdao to the United States, alongside the opening of a new international port operation center in Qingdao. This development aims to enhance FedEx's logistics network in China, offering efficient and flexible logistics services and solutions to help local businesses capitalize on global trade opportunities.
The route begins at Qingdao Jiaodong International Airport, stops over in Osaka, Japan, and then proceeds to Memphis, Tennessee. Since May this year, the route has been operating one flight per week on a trial basis. With the upgrade, it will operate five flights weekly from Monday to Friday using B777 freighters. The additional flights are expected to reduce transport time for customers exporting parcels and heavy cargo from Qingdao and Shandong regions to North America by one day. Some shipments exported to the United States may even be delivered next day.
Integrating this route with FedEx's existing ground transportation network in Shandong provides same-day export services for customers in areas like Qingdao, Yantai, Weihai, Jinan, Zibo, and Weifang. This allows customers more flexibility in arranging their exports and highlights FedEx's efficient service expansion for global business.
