The port rotation for the service is Rotterdam, Thamesport, Bremerhaven, Antwerp, Khorfakkan, Singapore, Shanghai, Xiamen, Yantian, Singapore, Jeddah and Rotterdam.   Meanwhile, Wan Hai and PIL are ending their Far East/Europe service, the FES, Lloyd's List reported.   The service used eight 4,250-TEU ships and one 3,075-TEU vessel, with five from PIL and four from Wan Hai, which will now take slots from COSCO.   American Shipper
