CSAV reduces capacity on 'New Discovery' Asia-South Africa service

CSAV is reported to be removing some capacity from its Asia-South Africa service in December by replacing five of the eight vessels that are currently being used to operate the service with smaller container ships.
The move will lower capacity on the New Discovery service by around 13 per cent to 2,226 TEU per week, according to American Shipper affiliate ComPair Data. All eight of the vessels have up to now been provided by CSAV.
The port rotation for the New Discovery service is: Xingang, Ningbo, Shanghai, Chiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, Durban, Cape Town, Singapore, Xingang, Ningbo, Shanghai, Chiwan and Hong Kong.
Libra-Montemar takes slots on the service, reports the Asian Shipper.
