FEDEX EXPRESS INTRODUCES NEW DIRECT CONNECTION BETWEEN INDIA AND ASIA-PACIFIC HUB
KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 5 (Bernama)-- FedEx Express, a subsidiary of FedEx Corp., is complementing its service portfolio with the introduction of a new direct connection between India and its Asia Pacific hub in Baiyun International Airport, Guangzhou, southern China.
"Despite the economic downturn, China and India expect to register high growth rates of 10 and 8.8 per cent respectively in 2010," the company said in a statement Wednesday.
"With an expected 7.9 per cent average annual growth rate in the intra-Asia air cargo market over the next 20 years, the new flight will boost and support increasing trade demand with India across the Asia Pacific region," it added.
The world's largest express transportation company said its new dedicated A310 flight connects from the FedEx Asia Pacific hub in Guangzhou – Mumbai – New Delhi – Guangzhou, five-times weekly.
"The first flight commenced from Guangzhou Tuesday. The new flight provides significant service enhancements for our customers in Asia.
"The new dedicated service signifies the FedEx commitment to continue investing in areas that not only address customer demand, but support trade growth in the Asia Pacific region and India," said FedEx Express for Asia Pacific president, David L. Cunningham Jr.
