THE Alliance, comprising Hapag-Lloyd, Ocean Network Express (ONE), Yang Ming and HMM, has reconfigured its service network for the next year.
The updated service setup will enter into effect from April 2023.
According to a joint statement of the companies, one of the key highlights will be the deployment of larger newbuild ships to the Asia and North Europe trade. A modern series of fuel-efficient 23,500+ TEU vessels will replace smaller container ships.
Furthermore, another upgrade will be the additional deployment of 14,000/15,000 TEU vessels on the Asia and Mediterranean trade as well as on the US East Coast trade.
The new service network of The Alliance will have the following rotations:
