We would like to inform you of upcoming adjustments to the Dragon service proforma, effective from ONE San Diego 634S, departing Qingdao on 21 August 2026 and arriving in Sydney on 15 September 2026.
Following the launch of the dedicated Qilin service serving Shanghai → Sydney → Melbourne, the Dragon service will no longer call Shanghai and will operate on the following rotation:
Qingdao → Ningbo → Hong Kong → Yantian → Sydney → Melbourne → Brisbane → Qingdao
In addition, the port windows at Ningbo, Hong Kong and Yantian will be adjusted to enhance overall schedule reliability and reduce the impact of weather-related and terminal disruptions on service performance.
Brisbane exports to Shanghai will now be served either via transshipment in Hong Kong or Tanjung Pelepas depending on your needs.
These changes are designed to provide a more consistent and reliable service for your cargo.
