With the recent security incidents in mind, Hapag-Llyod has decided to continue to avoid the Red Sea route in the interest of the safety of our crew and their cargo. They have updated their schedules to reflect the Cape of Good Hope transit at the last port of departure in the region. This will allow Hapag to make the most accurate decisions based on the latest information.
Hapag will introduce a shuttle service connecting Red Sea cargo via Jeddah, SA. This will enable them to connect the Red Sea market with Europe, North Americ and Latin America.
Tanger, MA – Damietta, EG – Jeddah, SA – Tanger, MA
- A feeder service has been arranged whereby Aqaba, JO and Port Sudan, SD are routed via Jeddah, SA.
- They plan to maintain a 10-day frequency for this service.
We understand that this doesn’t cover all Red Sea cargo, so we will continue to provide updates as we come up with more solutions.
We will keep you informed of any developments and changes as they occur.
