Maersk Line will from later this month drop calls at Tanjung Pelepas in Malaysia on the Asia/Europe AE7 service that uses the Danish carrier's flagship Emma Maersk series of containerships.
The last westbound call at the port will be made by Emma Maersk on March 20. The final eastbound voyage will be made by Evelyn Maersk when it departs on April 17.
The revised rotation of the AE7, which is now deploying all eight of the "PS" class ships with an estimated capacity of about 15,000 TEUs, will be Shanghai, Ningbo, Hong Kong, Yantian, Algeciras, Rotterdam, Bremerhaven, Algeciras, Yantian, and back to Shanghai.
Maersk will continue to call at Tanjung Pelepas on six other dedicated Asia/Europe loops.
