FedEx and UPS Jumpseat

A little help please. I want to take either a FedEx or UPS jumpseat out of HKG but am not sure how to catch up to the crew or airplane. Do I meet the crew somewhere or is there transportation from the pax terminal to the plane? Thanks in advance for your help.

Can't help you with the JS, but if you're who I think you are, then we've exterminated quite a few Hoegaardens together!

Most of FedEx's own employees are barred from jumpseating, so unless you're a FedEx pilot or work for the FAA I don't rate your chances very high.
UPS might might be less restrictive.

I don't believe there is ANY international JS's on FedEx or UPS unless you are an employee.

best of luck with that , can't speak for UPS but with Fedex I would imagine the choice in nil, Fedex personel are not even entitled to JS on any of the vendor A/C ACL etc.
