NYK offers nine-day NY-Antwerp shuttle

9/4/2010 9:23:29 AM

Nippon Yusen KK (NYK) will in mid-September begin offering a weekly non-stop container shipping shuttle linking New York and the Belgian city of Antwerp in nine days, according to Nihon Keizai Shimbun.

Nippon Yusen's current transatlantic service connects multiple ports on the East Coast of the US and several European ports.

Because stopovers are made and ground shipping is required, a one-way trip takes about 15 days. But with customers increasingly calling for faster transit between the Big Apple and Antwerp, the Japanese marine shipper has decided to offer the shuttle service directly linking these two cities.

The new AES service will be offered jointly with German carriers Hapag-Lloyd and Hamburg Sud, as well as Hong Kong shipper Orient Overseas Container Line. Three small container vessels operated by Hapag-Lloyd will be used. NYK and the other partners will rent space on the ships.
