THE Alliance, including Hapag-Lloyd, Yang Ming, Ocean Network Express (ONE) and HMM, has reconfigured its service network setup.
THE Alliance, which includes four leading global shipping companies, has announced service network adjustment for 2024, to “ensure a comprehensive port coverage.”
Specifically, the updated service setup will be effective from April 2024.
“One of key highlights in 2024 will be deploying additional tonnage in several services to ensure the most comprehensive coverage and the most reliable schedule under the existing operational conditions,” said Hapag-Lloyd.
THE Alliance has also noted that in the Asia-North Europe Trade and Transpacific South West Trade, it will extend the 2023 Winter Program until further notice.
Hapag-Lloyd, HMM, Ocean Network Express and Yang Ming cover all east-west shipping trades: Asia and North Europe, Asia and Mediterranean, Transpacific – West Coast, Transpacific – East Coast, Asia and Middle East / Red Sea, and Transatlantic.
Established in 2016, THE Alliance started operations in April 2017. Together, the companies operate 260 ships, call at 82 ports, and offer 31 different services.
“A broad port coverage, high sailing frequencies and a variety of services, our customers greatly benefit from the dense network of THE Alliance,” the shipping companies claim.
