FedEx boosts Asia-Europe connectivity
HONG KONG, Oct 14 (WorldACD) - FedEx Express, a unit of FedEx Corp., has introduce a new next-business-day service connecting mainland China, Hong Kong and Singapore with France and Germany.

FedEx said with these initial indicators of an economic recovery, the service enhancement will provide a one-business-day transit time to Europe for FedEx International Priority shipments that originate from Hong Kong, Shanghai and Singapore destined for Frankfurt, Cologne and Paris, from Monday to Thursday.

The Asia-to- Europe air cargo market is expected to expand at an average annual rate of 6.5 per cent in the next two decades.



Are FedEx in Cologne already (Thought the hub was not built yet)? One business day from Asia sounds pretty zippy to me - are the boxes being thrown out of the planes with parachutes?
