CKYH Alliance (Coscon, “K” LINE, Yang Ming, Hanjin Shipping) is pleased to announce service modification on PSW2, PSW4, PSW5 and Y-PNW by adjustment of routings and calling port combination on Trans-Pacific loops. Also they will link current K-PNW to AES-2 in order to make pendulum operation which covers North America, Asia and North Europe. With this modification, CKYH Alliance aim not only to streamline CKYH TPS service alignment, but also to reduce CO2 emissions by optimum navigation speed. This is one of the action plans followed by the consensus of CKYH Summit Meeting held in Okinawa last month.
Details of service structures are as follows, which will be launched effective end of June 2008 :
PSW2 (to adjust from 5500TEU vessels to 4300TEU vessels):
