Ocean shipping company Horizon Lines has adjusted its Puerto Rico service schedule to better align its deployed capacity with market demand and to improve cargo availability times in San Juan.
Effective Jan. 10, 2013, the company will offer weekly service between Jacksonville, Fla., and San Juan. The southbound service will depart from Jacksonville on Thursday evenings and arrive in San Juan on Sundays. Cargo will be available at the opening of business on Monday mornings.
The company currently offers twice-weekly service between the locations, departing Jacksonville on Tuesdays and Fridays.
Horizon Lines’ weekly San Juan service from the Northeast will depart Elizabeth, N.J., on Thursday evenings, instead of Fridays, with cargo available in San Juan on Mondays. Northbound departures from San Juan to Elizabeth will be on Sunday evenings with arrival on Thursday mornings, and northbound departures from San Juan to Jacksonville will be Monday evenings with arrival on Thursday mornings.
