The Alliance Announces Service Network Upgrade Plan For 2023

THE Alliance’s network has been reconfigured to ensure the most comprehensive port coverage to maximise the satisfaction of the member lines’ customers. The enhanced service setup will enter into effect from April 2023.

One of the key highlights will be the deployment of larger newbuild ships to the Asia and North Europe trade. A modern series of fuel-efficient 23,500+ TEU vessels will replace smaller vessels. This is part of THE Alliance’s ongoing commitment to offer more sustainable services by minimising the carbon footprint of its service network.

Another major upgrade will be the additional deployment of 14,000/15,000 TEU vessels on the Asia and Mediterranean trade as well as on the US East Coast trade.

The enhanced service network of THE Alliance will have the following rotations:
