Your Questions About Fedex

Paul asks…

What does Fedex does to goods that they could not deliver to the recipient within 5 days?

What does Fedex does to goods that they could not deliver to the recipient within 5 days(due to some reason) of arrival at their”local FedEx facility”(the place where incoming international deliveries are stored before they are distributed nation wide).

Michelle answers:

They keep them in their distribution centers for later delivery or pick-up.

Donald asks…

How to get to fedex field from Baltimore using public transportation?

Trying to get to fedex field without renting a car or taking a cab going to a 8 pm game any suggestions?
Thanks

Michelle answers:

If it’s a weekday game you can get there using a combination of Marc train and Metro. If it’s a Sunday game you’ll have to take Amtrak plus Metro. It’ll take you a few hours and I think getting back the Baltimore after the game will be a problem.

Lizzie asks…

Is it hard to become a pilot for FedEx?

What does it take to become a pilot for FedEx? I know all the entry requirements from their websites but I’m pretty sure that those are just the minimal requirements. Is there anyone that has successfully became a pilot for FedEx that can give me some tips?
And I’m talking about being a pilot for FedEx Express. Is there a height limit that they impose? Because I’m a 163cm short Asian guy.

Michelle answers:

FedEx is by far one of the hardest airlines to get hired at and for good reason… Almost every airline pilot would love to work there. The pay and job stability are very good there.

If you want to become a pilot for fedex there is only one single thing that really matters, and that is knowing pilots at fedex. Now, I don’t just mean that you met a fedex pilot once in a jumpseat. I mean, you have to know fedex pilots that have not only flown professionally with you but who would also write letters of recommendation. One of them has to sponsor you, and a fedex pilot can only sponsor one candidate per year (at least, that’s how it used to be) so it generally has to be a very good contact. You will also need to meet their minimums, which most likely includes at least 1000 PIC turbine time.

I know several guys who went to FedEx. None of them were necessarily perfect pilots. They were average guys, with no more than a few thousands hours. They did, however, all have very good contacts there.

Laura asks…

What will the FEDEX Ground Delivery Personnel do if no one receives the package?

Received my tracking number just now for an item purchased online. Used the number and so far, there’s no information regarding about it just yet. Perhaps tonight…

Anyway, does FEDEX Ground do deliveries on a Saturday?
Since that’s a weekend, our family goes out for recreational fun, if ever the FEDEX Ground guys deliver on Saturday and no one is at home to receive, what exactly will they do?

Thank You Very Much!
Your answer(s) will surely enlighten a questioning mind today!

Michelle answers:

Well if the package is going to a home -Fedex home delivery will
deliver the package on Saturday at no additional charge
and what sometimes happens a company will print a shipping label
with a tracking number which automatically notify Fedex to EXPECT a package with that tracking number for them to pick up or deliver to a fedex station or office.
As for delivering if the package doesnt required a signature they will
leave the package at your front door
if it need a signature a door tag will be left for you to sign
