, China -- FedEx Express, a subsidiary of FedEx Corp. (NYSE: FDX), announced today that it will offer next-business-day domestic express service in China beginning May 28, 2007. Combined with the company's industry-leading international express service, the new domestic offering will connect businesses both within China and around the world. FedEx connects more than 90 percent of China's GDP to the rest of the world through its global network.

The new domestic services, expected to be fully operational in June 2007, will serve China's burgeoning market with next-business-day, time-definite delivery service to 19 cities and a day-definite service to more than 200 cities throughout the country. Real-time package status tracking will let customers know where their shipments are every step of the way.

Companies across China, including those in second- and third-tier cities, will benefit from increased domestic reach, greater connectivity among cities and reliable, time-definite express service. FedEx will offer a money-back guarantee for the next-business-day express service.

"We are well-positioned to capitalize on China's transition to a consumer economy through its rapidly growing middle class," said Michael L. Ducker, president, FedEx Express International. "Our worldwide transportation network supports China's supply chains, which are driving long-term economic growth for the country."

"Up to 90 percent of existing FedEx customers in China have expressed the need for a reliable domestic express service," said Eddy Chan, senior vice president, FedEx China. "This is a strong signal to us that many companies view domestic express service in China as a catalyst for growth and competitiveness in this exploding market."

Like the U.S. express hub-and-spoke system which FedEx pioneered, the domestic express network includes a hub-and-spoke system centered at the Hangzhou Xiaoshan International Airport, located in East China's Zhejiang Province. The newly established hub will initially be able to sort up to 9,000 packages per hour.

A domestic carrier, Okay Airways, will provide the domestic air transportation. Using three Boeing 737 freighters, Okay Airways will operate an air cargo domestic network within China in support of FedEx. The aircraft will operate two circular routes nightly, covering the country's major airports.

"We greatly appreciate the Zhejiang Government's commitment to expanding business opportunities by increasing access to markets," said David L. Cunningham, Jr., president, FedEx Asia Pacific. "Hangzhou offers an excellent combination of infrastructure, air traffic capacity, geographic location and weather conditions. This means better cut-off times and faster service for our customers. We also have an excellent air carrier in Okay Airways. Okay Airways has a clear understanding of our vision for a fully integrated overnight express network, and they are committed to developing an air cargo network in support of that vision."
