MCC Transport, the Singapore-based intra-Asia container shipping unit of the AP Moller-Maersk group, is extending the port rotation of its IA2 service to Indonesia with a new call at Jakarta.

The IA2 provides direct connections to North Asia and a Jakarta-Laem Chabang link. It also acts as an additional Jakarta feeder to Tanjung Pelepas and Singapore, reports Alphaliner.

The port rotation for the upgraded IA2 is Tokyo, Yokohama, Nagoya, Kaohsiung, Hong Kong, Shenzhen-Yantian, Tanjung Pelepas, Singapore, Jakarta, Tanjung Pelepas, Singapore, Laem Chabang, Hong Kong, Xiamen and back to Tokyo. It will turn in five weeks.

It said OOCL will participate in the Thailand-China-Japan-Taiwan string branded as the KTX5 service to succeed to its existing KTX5 loop, which is to be scrapped. OOCL participation will be limited to the following port sequence of Laem Chabang, Hong Kong, Xiamen, Tokyo, Yokohama, Nagoya, Kaohsiung and back to Hong Kong.

The service will deploy five 2,700-TEU ships, four of which will be provided by MCC and one by OOCL. It explained that the OOCL ship will run the entire service, including on the non-OOCL legs.

Gold Star Line will continue purchasing slots on the service from MCC. As GSL's Thailand-Japan Express (TJX) service, it will call at the ports of Laem Chabang, Hong Kong, Shenzhen-Yantian, Tokyo, Yokohama and Nagoya.
