Is there a way to look up what cities Fedex serves out of DFW?

I know of IND and MEM. I think there might also be a west coast - like OAK.

If you are going to the terminals from FedEx, go out the back of our parking lot and wait on the road with same said $5 spot. FastTrack and even Parking Spot north or a hotel van will take you TOWARDS the terminals. FastTrack is the only one guaranteed to take you towards the ramp.
To help those for future reference:

A couple of the FastTrack drivers have been getting in trouble for taking us. Don't take it personally if they shake their heads when you ask, I wouldn't expect them to risk their jobs to help us out. I spoke to one of the drivers about this and he said some will some won't. Hit or miss. Sometimes the Parking Spot (north) will hook you up but same risk there.

Just make sure you tip no less than $5
