Russian operator Panda Express Line has reorganized its China–Russia Far East service network, according to Alphaliner. The restructuring includes the addition of three new service loops and revisions to two existing ones, optimizing coverage and sailing frequency between key Chinese and Russian ports.

The updated network configuration is as follows:

  • PEL1 – 2 × 1,200–1,500 TEU – 9 days – Vladivostok, Guangzhou (Nansha), Xiamen, Busan, and back to Vladivostok

  • PEL2 – 1 × 1,300 TEU – 15 days – Vostochny, Tianjin, Ningbo, and back to Vostochny

  • PEL3 – 1 × 1,300 TEU – Fortnightly – Vostochny, Rizhao, Shanghai, and back to Vostochny

  • PEL4 – 1 × 1,200 TEU – Fortnightly – Vladivostok, Tianjin, Ningbo, and back to Vladivostok

  • PEL5 – 1 × 600 TEU – Fortnightly – Vladivostok, Rizhao, Shanghai, and back to Vladivostok

The reorganization enhances Panda Express Line’s flexibility and service reliability on the China–Russia trade corridor, providing improved frequency and broader port coverage in the region.
