Swiss/Italian container line MSC has revised its New Falcon service, removing Dammam from the port rotation.
The updated service now focuses on key regional hubs across East Asia and the Arabian Gulf, according to DynaLiners.
The revised rotation is as follows:
Tianjin (China) – Busan (South Korea) – Qingdao (China) – Shanghai (China) – Ningbo (China) – Xiamen (China) – Guangzhou (Nansha, China) – Shenzhen (Shekou, China) – Singapore – Jebel Ali (UAE) – Abu Dhabi (UAE) – Hamad (Qatar) – Umm Qasr (Iraq) – Abu Dhabi – Tianjin.
This change reflects MSC’s ongoing network optimization strategy, aligning port calls with shifting regional demand and operational priorities.
