Far East Asia to Middle East Services - Service Launch Announcement: 306 - SAFINA

We are pleased to announce the unveiling of our latest service Safina. This marks a significant advancement in our service provision between the Far East and Middle East. We have merged our existing Arabian Star and Arabian Express services into a single, integrated loop - the new Safina Service.

This integration will further elevate our service capabilities in both directions between the Far East and the Middle East, especially in the Arabian Gulf markets. Notably, we will establish direct calls from key locations in the Far East, including Ningbo, Shanghai, and Shekou, directly into Jebel Ali. This change aims to offer seamless connectivity and improved access to these crucial trade routes.

New Safina Rotation:

Ningbo – Shanghai – Shekou - Tanjung Pelepas – Port Klang – Jebel Ali – Colombo – Singapore

First effective vessel deployment:

Westbound

Eastbound

Last vessel deployment of ABS and ABX:

302 – Arabian Star

303 – Arabian Express

To ensure you do not face business disruptions, Hazira will be covered on our existing BNX service and supplemented by alternative connections to the original service.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. We look forward to continuing working with you in the future. In case of any questions, please contact your local customer service or sales representatives.
