New service between North Europe & West Coast USA

17/04/2015

Following several months of labor disputes which caused severe congestion in US west coast ports, an agreement has been reached which will allow normal service to resume. To complement this positive market development, MSC is delighted to announce, effective May 16th 2015 (starting from Felixstowe), a new direct service will be added to their transatlantic network.

The service, named USA WEST COAST EXPRESS, will rotate as follows; Felixstowe, Bremerhaven, Antwerp, Rotterdam, Le Havre, Sines, Long Beach, Oakland, Manzanillo, Balboa, Sines, Felixstowe, Bremerhaven, Antwerp, Rotterdam, Le Havre.

The addition of this service means that MSC will be in a unique position to offer all major US ports on a direct
basis. MSC’s six weekly services to/from North Europe cover the following ports;

Boston, New York (twice weekly), Baltimore, Philadelphia, Norfolk, Savannah, Charleston (twice weekly),
Jacksonville, Miami, Port everglades, New Orleans, Houston, Mobile, Long Beach and Oakland.
