CULines is launching several new routes in March 2021, to further expand its service network, meet the diversified transportation needs of customers, and deliver better services.
South China-Thailand service
The first route opened by CULines after the 2021 Chinese New Year is the South China-Thailand service (SCT), which will welcome its maiden voyage on March 6, 2021.
The SCT is one of the fastest and most stable South China-Vietnam/ Thailand routes
For the SCT, CULines has deployed two 1200TEU container vessels equipped with 178 reefer plugs, providing customers with stable and sufficient reefer equipment.
The SCT is one of the fastest and most stable South China-Vietnam/ Thailand routes. Port Rotation: Hong Kong – Nansha – Shekou – Laem Chabang – Bangkok – Laem Chabang - Hong Kong.
East China-Vietnam service
CULines plans to launch the maiden voyage of its new CVX2 on March 5, as a supplement to the existing East China-Vietnam express service (CVX: Shanghai – Xiamen – Ho Chi Minh).
The new service is expected to enhance CULines’ service quality and reliability surrounding the East China-Ho Chi Minh area. Port Rotation: Ningbo – Shekou – Ho Chi Minh – Shekou – Ningbo
China-Brazil service
The COVID-19 pandemic has led to insufficient transport capacity and containers on a global scale, which in turn blocks the logistics activities of manufacturers and disturbs the normal operation of factories. Given the urgent needs of customers, CULines is launching the China-Brazil service (CBS) to alleviate the shortage of containers and unblock logistics channels.
The maiden voyage of CBS is scheduled to depart from Yantian International Container Terminals (YICT) on March 6 and arrive at the ECO terminal of Santos, Brazil on April 8. This is seen as a new superior transportation channel for the export of goods from the Pan-Pearl River Delta region.
China-Europe service
CULines’ first ad-hoc voyage for the China-Europe service set sail from Yantian on February 7 with a full load. To address existing customer demands, CULines plans to launch a second ad-hoc service in Europe on March 16.
Its port rotation is Nansha – Yantian – Antwerp – Rotterdam – Hamburg - Yantian. Customers from Vietnam, Taiwan, Xiamen, and Shantou may transit via South China to Europe.
