Based on DynaLiners, A.P. Moller – Maersk and ZIM Integrated Shipping Services have expanded their joint Far East–East Coast South America ASAS/ASE service with the addition of an eastbound call at Ngqura, South Africa.
As part of the adjustment, the partners have also increased the fleet deployment by one vessel, bringing the total to 14 ships, each with an average capacity of approximately 10,000 TEU.
Revised service rotation
The expanded rotation is as follows:
Qingdao – Shanghai – Ningbo – Hong Kong – Shenzhen (Yantian) – Santos – Itapoá – Buenos Aires – Montevideo – Itapoá – Paranaguá – Santos – Ngqura – Singapore – Hong Kong – Qingdao
The addition of Ngqura strengthens connectivity on the eastbound leg and reflects ongoing network optimization efforts on the Far East–East Coast South America trade lane.
