The service will cover various trade areas on its route from Europe via the US Atlantic to Australia/New Zealand. The integration of the hub port Cartagena (Columbia) permits a fast linkage of the Trident Service with other Hamburg Süd services, offering rapid reliable connections to Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean as well as to South America East and West Coast.
The first sailing from Europe (southbound) in the weekly rhythm will be Cap Beatrice, departing Tilbury on March 9th.
The first weekly departure (northbound) will be Cape Martinfrom Sydney on April 5th.
The port rotation of the Trident Service remains unchanged: Tilbury > Bremerhaven > Antwerp > Philadelphia > Savannah > Cartagena > Auckland > Sydney > Melbourne > Timaru > Napier > Tauranga > Cartagena > Savannah > Philadelphia > Tilbury.
