Does FedEx have a IND-ANC flight. And if so, is it weekly?

TIA

I'm starting this commute in the coming months and it looks like there have been some changes in the past few years. It looks like the most consistent nonstop freight operator is Polar.

Can anyone share some insight on how one would get from the pax terminal to the Polar operation in ANC or LAX?

Any other options besides passenger airlines?

I think UPS operates a daily freighter ONT-ANC.

Yes, we do. Mon-Fri nights ONT-ANC, MD11. Leaves around 0200 local. Runs full of jseaters pretty often though.

OTOH, ANC-ONT is much easier. Two flights - an MD11 departs ANC around 1500 local, and a 747 departs around 1600 local M-F. Both (usually) leave with open seats, particularly the 747.
