Anyone here know a good way to get to the FedEx ramp in PHL from the main terminal? I figured I could just take a taxi, but I'm wondering if the airport has a cargo shuttle for flight crew like JFK does. I need to commute home from PHL this week and jumpseat on FedEx.

The local PHL FedEx contact should have that information, ask when you call to make the JS reservation.

Actually, yes. This was how the jumpseaters that rode with me got to the FedEx location. The Cargo City bus drops you off at the employee parking lot and it's a short 300 foot walk to Building #7 (FedEx).

I made the mistake of paying a cab to get there from the terminal, but it gave me piece of mind that I'd get to the right spot quickly.

Where is the FedEx ramp in comparison to the UPS ramp? I've never taken FedEx out of PHL, just UPS. I guess that's where my assumption came from that you couldn't use the Cargo City bus.

If I recall, I believe UPS is at the south side of the field, where the Cargo City bus does not go. I could be wrong though. The FedEx ramp is in the north end of the field, just north of RWY 9L but west of the airline terminals.
