CMA CGM has announced the launching of a new fixed day weekly service on the Asia – Red Sea route, the REX 3 service, on May 2nd, 2013.
Complementing the existing REX 2 service, which focuses on Red Sea Northern Ports (Jeddah, Sokhna, Aqaba), the new REX 3 will connect Asia to Red Sea Southern ports via Colombo, Sri Lanka, thus offering a global coverage of the region with calls at six ports of the Red Sea.
Through its call in Colombo, the REX 3 service will provide full coverage of South Indian markets, thanks to CMA CGM’s feeder network.
The new REX 3 will also offer the fastest transit time from Asia to Port Sudan (Shanghai – Port Sudan: 28 days) and some of the best transit times to the Ethiopian market via Djibouti and to Aden.
As from May 2nd, 2013, in Tanjung Pelepas, the REX 3 will be operated along the following schedule: Port Kelang > Tanjung Pelepas > Colombo > Djibouti > Aden > Jeddah > Port Sudan, > Djibouti > Colombo > Port Kelang.
