Mediterranean - South America East Coast - MSE Service Update South of France and Spain
In our continued efforts to provide you with high value service and as a further update to our CustomerInfo of November 23, 2017 we would like to inform you about our latest Service update as follows:
- Market coverage from/to South of France
For Export cargoes we will, with immediate effect, connect to the markets at South America East Coast with a transshipment operation via Marsaxlokk, Malta. This is due to recent service changes.
Our departures from Fos-Sur-Mer are scheduled for Tuesdays AM with arrival at Marsaxlokk on Fridays PM where we connect with the MSE Service.
For Import cargoes we still continue to connect at Genoa, Italy.
- Terminal Change at Valencia, Spain
Furthermore, effective with the arrival of MSC VITA 808A at Valencia on April 3, 2018 we will switch our operation to the NOATUM Container Terminal, Valencia S.A.U.
The restructured MSE Service, covering the major markets in the Mediterranean and the East Coast of South America, will continue to be a weekly service with fixed scheduled arrivals and departures.
The enhanced rotation of the service will be as follows:
*) Private call in which Hapag-Lloyd does not participate
The MSE Service continues to offer you a comprehensive market coverage in this trade with mainly direct connections and highly competitive transit times in both directions and with a hub in Malta to connect to markets in Asia, Middle East and Africa:
Transit Time (in days) – Southbound
Transit Time (in days) – Northbound
*) Feeder connecting to/from Zarate (Argentina)
**) From FOS via Marsaxlokk (Malta)
***) To FOS via Genoa (Italy)
We are looking forward to continue the valuable relationship and the reliable service we have been providing to you.
