New World cuts Yokohama from transpacific loop
The New World Alliance has amended its SAX service between Asia and Southern California so that the service no longer calls at Yokohama, according to American Shipper affiliate ComPair Data.
The service now only serves southern China and Singapore in Asia. The new rotation is Singapore, Hong Kong, Chiwan, Los Angeles, Kaohsiung, Chiwan, Yantian and Singapore.
ComPair Data said the service length and vessels will remain the same for the SAX loop. New World Alliance members APL, Hyundai Merchant Marine and MOL operate the service with seven vessels with an average capacity of 6,502 TEUs. APL provides all the vessels.
