OOCL and APL are to jointly launch a new China-India Express service (CIX) on May 13th, which will be an enhancement of the existing NSS feeder service.
OOCL will contribute two of the five 2000-2500 TEU vessels on the service.
The new CIX service is the shipping lines’ response to the robust growth and customer demand in container traffic between China and India, and incorporates a Singapore-Nhava Sheva feeder service for express transport.
This service covers three major North China ports (Xingang, Dalian and Qingdao), and offers dedicated service from North and South China to Southeast Asia and India with competitive transit times.
The CIX port rotation is: Xingang (Sun/Mon) > Dalian (Tue/Tue) > Qingdao (Thu/Thu) > Hong Kong (Sun/Sun) > Shekou (Mon/Mon) > Singapore (Fri/Sat) > Colombo (Tue/Wed) > Nhava Sheva (Sat/Sun) > Singapore (Sat/Sun) > Hong Kong (Wed/Thu) > back to Xingang (Sun/Mon) for a 35-day round trip.
