GERMANY's Hapag-Lloyd is to extend coverage on its northern Europe and Baltic Sea weekly services begun in April this year with a call at Gydnia to support one of Europe's fastest growing markets.
At the same time, it is making changes to loops in the Mediterranean, Black Sea and the Adriatic.
The northern REX service will deploy an additional 1,400-TEU capacity vessel, first sailing to reach Gdynia four days from Bremerhaven, rotating through Hamburg, Gdynia, St Petersburg, Helsinki, Gydnia and back to Bremerhaven.
It provides increased coverage to the Baltic area which extends to the carrier's weekly ADX service in the Mediterranean basin to ports in the Adriatic with the Near East serving central and Eastern Europe. This includes the addition of Turkey's Mersin on its eastbound leg with inaugural calling by Cape Falster 1,221 TEU on September 15.
Port rotation for the revised ADX service will be as follows: Damietta, Port Said, Koper, Rijeka, Venice, Ancona, Mersin and back Damietta.
