FedEx ups Korea to Europe capacity with A300F

FedEx Express has announced that it has enhanced its services along the Asia-Europe route with the roll out of a new A300-600 aircraft on the existing route from Incheon, Korea into Europe over the FedEx Asia-Pacific hub in Guangzhou, China, ten times per week.

The maximum load capacity of an A300-600 aircraft is approximately 50 tonnes, about 13 tonnes more than the A310-300 currently used on the route, which will allow for more goods to be transported.

The new aircraft deployment was launched in Guangzhou and a number of key locations throughout Europe, Middle East and Africa. This latest enhancement is expected to assist in meeting the increased demands for logistics services in Asia-Pacific and Europe, FedEx said in a statement. In addition, FedEx plans to deploy the new freighters in the FedEx AsiaOne network, which connects major cities in Asia within 24 hours.
