Horizon Lines plans to terminate its Five Star Express (FSX) transpacific container shipping service between the US West Coast, Guam and China.
Horizon is implementing an orderly transition plan, beginning October 31, 2011, and will work aggressively to mitigate any supply chain disruptions for its customers.
Discontinuation of the FSX Guam and China services will have no impact on the company's domestic ocean services in Alaska, Hawaii or Puerto Rico.
The last voyage of the FSX service from China is scheduled to depart Shanghai on November 2.
Horizon Lines also will suspend ocean services to Guam and surrounding islands effective with the last sailing from the US West Coast on November 10.
