The main changes in the ASE Loop 1 will be the addition of a Sepetiba call in the westbound leg and Navegantes call on the eastbound leg. On ASE Loop 2, a Hong Kong call will be added on the eastbound leg. All this changes are aimed to offer an even better coverage and connectivity to you.
The new setup will be ensured through new ASE Loop 2 Vessel Sharing Agreement comprising following partners: Hapag-Lloyd, Hamburg Süd, HMM, NYK and ZIM. In the case of ASE Loop 1, Hapag-Lloyd allocation will be ensured through a Slot Swap Agreement with COSCO, which will allow Hapag-Lloyd to increase its current allocation on this loop.
The first voyages under this new setup will be:
Loop 1:
MV COSCO Shipping Volga voyage 001W ETD Shanghai January 22, 2017
MV COSCO Shipping Volga voyage 001E ETD Montevideo March 2, 2017
Loop 2:
MV Cap San Juan voyage 703W ETD Busan January 13, 2017
MV Cap San Juan voyage 703E ETD Buenos Aires February 27, 2017
The implementation of the new setup may imply new transit times in many of the eastbound voyages for the coming twelve weeks period, which will be announced through our schedules.
