Maersk to start Northern Europe/Central America loop    Maersk Line will in the first week of January start a weekly service connecting Central America and the Caribbean directly with Northern Europe.
   The service will call at Southampton and Zeebrugge in Europe and Puerto Moin, Costa Rica; Kingston, Jamaica; and Manzanillo, Panama.
   The scheduled transit-time from Puerto Moin to Southampton and Zeebrugge will be 13 and 14 days, respectively.
