It is no secret that the global logistics industry is facing an unprecedented strain. This situation has led to changes that affect supply chains worldwide. While the industry adapts to the new scenarios, operational challenges cause irreversible changes.
Thinking about your cargo planning, please note that our East Med Express (EME) service will have a few modifications. From week 47 on the northbound, and week 49 on the southbound directions, the fleet of our service will be reduced by one vessel. With this in mind, we regret to inform you that this service's port coverage will no longer include Hamburg (DE), Antwerp (BE), and Limassol (CY). The majority of cargo will be able to be rerouted either via Rotterdam (NL) or Bremerhaven (DE). Limassol (CY) will be covered with feeder vessels with a transshipment in Piraeus.
For your guidance, please find below the last sailings per direction with the full port coverage, including the vessel name, voyage and Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA):
These service changes will be in place until the end of 2021, thereafter the East Med Express service will be discontinued. For your reference, the last sailings for this service will be:
Please know that in the future, all the ports that were originally covered by this service will continue to be served by other Hapag-Lloyd services combined with feeder vessels. You can view all future sailings and routings for your preferred origins and destinations here.
We thank you for your understanding, and please know that if you should require additional information our customer service team at your location will guide you based on your individual situation
