Yang Ming Plan Transpacific Networks for ’25
[ April 5, 2024 // Gary G Burrows ]Ocean Network Express and Taiwan-based Yang Ming said they will introduce a transpacific service in February 2025.
Japan-based ONE said it will deploy 16 weekly transpacific services, with an emphasis on end-to-end direct services and high schedule reliability. Yang Ming said it will participate in 13 of the loops between Asia and the U.S. East and West coasts.
The move coincides with Hapag-Lloyd’s departure from THE Alliance, or THEA, operated with ONE and HMM, in 2025. ONE CEO Jeremy Nixon said the new services will minimize the impact of Hapag-Lloyd’s departure on ONE’s network and customers over the post Chinese New Year disengagement period.
ONE has already announced the independent WIN and AP1 services. The 16 core weekly transpacific services, starting February 2025, will emphasize quality end-to-end direct services and high schedule reliability.
“We acknowledge that many of our valued transpacific customers possess contracts extending beyond February 2025,” said Jeremy Nixon, CEO of ONE. “Hence, we would like to present our 2025 transpacific product overview in advance, ensuring clear visibility of our dedication in serving your transportation needs.”
