Norasia to start China/Europe/Middle East link in May
Hong Kong-based Norasia Container Lines, a subsidiary of the Compania Sud Americana de Vapores group, will start an independent, weekly service connecting the Far East, the Middle East and Europe in May.
The new “AME” service will deploy eight ships of about 4,100-4,400 TEUs and call ports in China and North Europe westbound. The Red Sea and Arabian Gulf regions will be directly served on the eastbound leg.
The service will be upgraded to 5,500-TEU ships during the first half of 2006, Norasia said.
