One of MSC’s ships has become the first vessel to call at Baltimore Port’s Seagirt Container Terminal since the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapsed on 26 March.
Alphaliner’s report stated that the 2,797 TEU MSC Passion III, which is deployed to the Swiss operator’s Philadelphia Express service connecting Philadelphia to Bahamas’ Freeport, Moin, Colon and Cristobal, made an ad hoc call to Seagirt to collect containers stranded by the bridge collapse.
Vessel-tracking data shows that MSC Passion III arrived in Baltimore on 27 April and departed on 29 April.
