Fedex Express to cease Kaohsiung cargo flight services

FedEx Express, will close its Kaohsiung air cargo transportation line July 27 after 12 years of service, according to the company’s branch office at the Kaohsiung International Airport.

Despite of the closure, the company stressed that their cargo transportation services in the southern Taiwan region will not be affected, and that their southern Taiwan posts will continue to receive orders.

FedEx opened the Kaohsiung route Sept. 4, 1995, with its cargo aircraft plying the route from the southern port city to Subic Bay in the Philippines via Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport in northern Taiwan five times per week.

However, according to corporate sources, cargo loads are limited at the Kaohsiung airport. Besides, Taiwan’s two largest airlines — the China Airlines and EVA Airways — also operate cargo flights out of the airport and reach many of the same destinations in Southeast Asia.

FedEx executives stationed at the airport confirmed the decision to cease Kaohsiung cargo flight operations, but declined to explain why.
