FedEx reduces its capacity for Asia-Americas routes to align with trade demand.

In early May, FedEx reduced its air cargo capacity between Asia and the Americas by over 35% compared to April, with a notable 50% cut in third-party capacity, as stated by CEO Raj Subramaniam. The company is adapting to shifting trade patterns, particularly increasing demand in Southeast Asia, and has launched a direct flight from Singapore to Anchorage to improve transit times for e-commerce and electronics. Despite challenges from the end of the de minimis exemption affecting trade with China, FedEx reported a 5% rise in international air freight revenue in Q4, supported by its capacity optimization efforts.
