FedEx’s Cheong joins Cargo Facts Asia 2026
Audrey Cheong, vice president of operations at FedEx China, will join Cargo Facts Asia 2026 for the panel discussion “Assessment of the Asia-Pacific freighter market” on Tuesday, March 24, at 9:15 (UTC +8).
The 14th annual Cargo Facts Asia conference will take place March 23-25 at the W Shanghai, bringing together decision-makers, global executives and leaders to analyze the latest market trends, air cargo developments and their potential impact in Asia.
Cheong has been in her role since March 2021. Her more than twenty-five years of executive management experience with FedEx includes positions as managing director of operations in Singapore and managing director of international operations in East China.
FedEx hopes to restart MD-11F service by May, and will likely stagger the return of the trijets as they complete inspections and any required maintenance, it told Cargo Facts in January. All MD-11s were grounded following the fatal crash in November 2025 of a UPS aircraft in Louisville, Ky.
FedEx took delivery of its 148th production 767-300F from Boeing in December, bringing its 767 freighter fleet to 150 aircraft.
Cheong will be joined on the panel by:
- Hakan Bulat, president of Hong Kong Air Cargo; and
- Robert Zhang, commercial director at SF Airlines.
The discussion will address:
- Shifting air cargo demand away from North America and to Europe and Central Asia;
- Implications of trade regulations on trans-Pacific freighter demand; and
- Growth potential of new and established e-commerce hubs inside and outside of China.
Cargo Facts will present four invaluable events for airfreight professionals in 2026, the next of which is Cargo Facts Asia on March 23-25. To see the agendas and register for the events, visit CargoFactsEvents.com.
