Pacific International Lines (PIL) and Wan Hai Lines have resumed operation of their FES scheduled container liner service from the Far East to northern Europe, according to Euclid Infotech.
On April 15, the Kota Lambai, owned by Pacific International Lines was the first ship to call at the Port of Hamburg. Some 2,032 TEUs were loaded and unloaded at the HHLA Container Terminal Tollerort.
The second vessel to call at Hamburg as part of the service will be Wan Hai 510, scheduled to arrive a week later.
Due to reduced demand as a result of the global economic crisis,
the FES service, which has been in existence since 2004, was suspended at the end of 2008 and replaced with a slot charter operation.
Since the cargo flows on the Asia route have picked up again, PIL and Wan Hai have now reinstated their service.
