CMA CGM Restructures Asia-Med Services

CMA CGM recently announced the reshuffling of its Asia-Mediterranean services, including the removal of its Turkey Shuttle, effective Nov. 8.

The Turkey Shuttle comprised eight vessels of 6,500 20-foot-equivalent units, jointly operated by CMA CGM and Maersk, linking Asia to the Red Sea, Egypt and Turkey.

The container carrier will maintain its four other Asia-Mediterranean services (MEX 3, PHEOX, MEX 1, BEX) with some changes, including added calls, faster transit times and more capacity.
