TRADE - AMERICA EXPRESS SERVICE TO ADD EIGTH VESSEL
America Express Service to add Eigth Vessel - 03 Jan 2006
The AMEX (America Express Service) service between Southern Africa and North America is set to return to a fixed day, weekly service early in 2006.
This follows a decision by Safmarine and vessel-sharing partners Maersk Sealand and MSC to add an eighth vessel into the existing seven-vessel service.
According to Safmarine's Southern Africa Trades Executive, Alex De Bruyn, "The service partners in AMEX have made a substantial investment in acquiring an additional vessel in order to ensure customers trading in the Southern Africa and North American markets receive a more reliable service offering."
The eighth vessel, the M.V. MSC Amsterdam, will be phased into the AMEX service in Durban in the first week of January. Partner space allocation remains unchanged, as does the port rotation (Durban - Port Elizabeth - Cape Town -Newark - Baltimore - Newport News - North Charleston - Freeport - Cape Town - Durban)
