Grand Alliance and ZIM co-operate with Hamburg Süd on ATX service

5/4/2009 9:51:39 AM

Grand Alliance members Hapag-Lloyd, NYK and OOCL, together with ZIM Integrated Shipping Services, will co-operate with Hamburg Süd on the Atlantic Express (ATX) service.   The ATX service is currently operated by the Grand Alliance and ZIM. The agreement is subject to FMC approval, which is expected to be received by mid-June.  The co-operation is aimed at addressing declining transatlantic volumes.  The ATX port rotation will remain the same: Rotterdam > Hamburg > Le Havre > Southampton > New York > Norfolk > Charleston > Rotterdam.  Initially chartering slots, Hamburg Süd may provide a vessel to the service at a later stage.  Grand Alliance member MISC Berhad does not operate on this trade, and has therefore not participated in this particular agreement.   Eyefortransport
