Hey there! Have you ever wondered how packages travel across the world? 🌍 Well, here’s some exciting news about that!
FedEx is Flying More Planes from Xiamen to the USA!
FedEx, one of the world’s biggest delivery companies, has decided to add more flights from a city called Xiamen in China all the way to the United States! 🇨🇳➡️🇺🇸
What’s the Big Deal?
Before, FedEx flew this route once a week. But now, they’re flying five times a week – that’s almost every day from Tuesday to Saturday! 🎉 More flights mean packages and cargo can get to America one to two days faster. Isn’t that cool?
The Journey
The planes take off from Xiamen Gaoqi International Airport. They make a quick stop in Incheon, South Korea, and then head over to Anchorage, Alaska, and finally to Memphis, Tennessee. That’s quite a trip! ✈️
A New Super Sorting Facility
FedEx also opened a brand-new, high-tech facility in Xiamen. It’s like a giant sorting center that helps organize all the packages quickly. This place is as big as over half a soccer field (3,800 square meters) and uses smart machines to sort packages faster than ever! 🏭🤖
Why is This Important?
By boosting flights and having this new facility, FedEx can help businesses in China send their products to people all over the world faster. This is great for online shopping, or e-commerce, where people buy and sell things on the internet! 🛍️💻
FedEx in China
Did you know? FedEx has been working in China for 40 years now! They have six big logistics hubs in cities like Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Qingdao, and Xiamen. They have almost 11,000 employees and operate over 300 cargo flights every week in China! That’s a lot of packages! 📦🚚
Helping Global Trade
By increasing flights and improving their network, FedEx is helping businesses in China connect with people all around the world. It’s like making the world a little smaller and more connected! 🌐💖
