Get ready for a new port coverage between North Europe, North America and Latin America with our CES service!
If you are shipping with our Caribbean Express Service (CES), here's an update for your cargo planning. From April 2023, this service will replace the port pairs that were previously covered with our Saint John Express (AT3) service. With this new rotation, our CES will call Hamburg, Germany and St.John, NB Canada.
For your reference, here’s the updated rotation:
- London, GB -> Rotterdam, NL -> Hamburg, DE -> Antwerp, BE -> Saint John, CA -> Norfolk, US -> Santa Marta, CO -> Puerto Limon, CR -> Caucedo, DO -> London, GB
The new rotation brings additional benefits for your cargo planning:
- Competitive transit times for the Atlantic and Latin American connections. Check them out here
- Direct link between the Caribbean ports and Hamburg including an extended port coverage for the Scan Baltic countries.
- Weekly coverage of Saint John, NB paired with the London Gateway and Rotterdam port calls.
- Regular connectivity between Canada and various ports in the Caribbean.
With this change, Kingston, Jamaica will be removed from the rotation. As an alternative your cargo can be booked on our North Europe - South America Westcoast (SWX) service with transshipment options in the Caribbean to our global network.
This new rotation will be implemented with MV Amalthea V. 316S / 319N
- Estimated to depart Hamburg, Germany on April 23, 2023
- Estimated to arrive at Saint John,NB, Canada on May 1, 2023
The last vessel that will call Kingston, Jamaica, will be MV Caucedo Express V.315S / 318N.
