FedEx president for Asia Pacific, Karen Reddington said: “FedEx has launched this new flight to and from Sydney to give Australian businesses better access to global possibilities.
“We are seeing increasing inflows and outflows of goods and services worldwide to and from Australia, as we are across the rest of the Asia Pacific region.”
