Hello, I do all of my MD-11 flights with Fedex and was wondering if anyone knew why there has been a dramatic reduction in the amount of flights to/from PANC lately. I have noticed that almost all the flights that usually make a tech stop in PANC before continuing to the Asian cities are now going to/from KOAK and sometimes KSEA. I read somewhere that Fedex was relocating some of their PANC based pilots, but is this the cause for the lack of PANC flights or is it something else?Thanks, Dave S.

Hi,Not 100% sure but it might have something to do with the volcano erruptions up there.John L.

John's correct.Scott

Thanks a lot guys. I did notice on flightaware last week that some of these flights were shown as diversions, so that makes sense.Dave S
