In a press release, Maersk Line said:
“Due to overlaps in port coverage, our new network will minimize disruptive effects on customers of blank sailings.
"The network will among many other things feature a new direct connection from Shanghai to the Black Sea, as well as a new direct service from France (Le Havre) and Sweden (Gothenburg) to ports in Japan.”
The service maps, schedules, port rotations and transit times of the alliance are available on the Maersk's website.
The 2M Alliance was announced this July. The 10-year agreement between Maersk and MSC is scheduled to take effect in early 2015.
