Hapag-Lloyd will further enhance its West Africa product.
As of week 47, Hapag-Lloyd will introduce the DEX (Dakar Express) Service which will offer weekly sailings from North Europe to Senegal and Mauretania and vice versa. In addition, these markets will be well connected with our Global Mainline Network via Tangier.
At the same time we will remove Dakar from the WAX (West Africa Express) which will significantly reduce operational stress on this service and improve the schedule reliability.
The DEX will be composed of 4 x 1,700 TEU vessels, all operated by Hapag-Lloyd, with following rotation:
Antwerp â–ª Dunkerque â–ª Lisbon â–ª Tangier â–ª Dakar â–ª Nouakchott â–ª Tangier â–ª Leixoes â–ª Antwerp
The first departure of DEX will be:
- Southbound: Antwerp November 25, 2018
- Northbound: Dakar December 3, 2018
Nouakchott December 5, 2018
The last WAX sailing to Dakar will be:
- Southbound: Frisia Oslo 1840S,
