HONG KONG's TS Line's 1,000-TEU Dejia made a maiden call at the Tianjin Port Alliance International Container Terminal recently, marking the commencement of a new container shipping service linking Tianjin and Hong Kong.
It is the 11th container shipping service launched at the Port of Tianjin in 2012, reports Xinhua. Two ships of 1,000-TEU have been deployed on the Tianjin Port-Hong Kong string. The new service arrives at Tianjin on Thursdays and leaves on Fridays, and is scheduled to call at Hong Kong and Incheon, etc, offering weekly sailings.
It is said the new service has further enhanced the Port of Tianjin's shipping capacity to the south east Asia, optimising the port's shipping route layout and contributed to the port's achieving its container throughput target this year.
