The new Boomerang service launched at the end of September will call at CCT every Sunday, on the following port rotation of: Chiwan, Hong Kong, Kaosiung, Sydney, Melborne, Fremantle, Singapore, Tanjung Pelepas, Fremantle, Melborne, Sydney, Brisbane, Yokohama, Nagoya, Osaka, Pusan, Qingdao, Shanghai, Ningbo, returning to Chiwan.
