Maersk aims to improve its Asia – US East Coast service network by restarting the TP20 service.
As of mid-April, the Danish shipping company will start operating the TP20 with direct coverage of the Greater China Area from North to South into Newark, Baltimore and Houston.
As a standalone service, the TP20 will be offering a stable weekly departure and competitive transit times, noted the carrier in a statement.
The port rotation of Maersk’s TP20 service will be Qingdao (China) – Shanghai (China) – Yantian (China) – Panama Canal (Panama) – Newark (US) – Baltimore (US)– Houston (US) – Panama Canal
The first sailing will be the Maersk Wallis from the port of Qingdao on 21 April.
