The slot agreement started Tuesday with a westbound voyage from Qingdao. Zim’s first eastbound voyage on the service it markets as the Asia North Europe Express will be from Le Havre Oct. 14.
The AME uses eight ships of about 4,500 TEUs and calls Qingdao, Shanghai, Ningbo, Xiamen, Hong Kong, Yantian, Port Kelang, Le Havre, Hamburg, Rotterdam, Antwerp, Felixstowe, Port Kelang and back to Qingdao.
Hong Kong-based CSAV Norasia is a subsidiary of Chile’s Compania Sud Americana de Vapores.
