Zim to deploy 10,000 TEU vessels on AEX-1 loop as AEX-2 is suspended

ZIM is to shift three of its 10,000 TEU ships from the end of June to CSCL's AEX-1 service, which it currently participates on as a slot buyer, alongside CMA CGM, Cosco and Yang Ming. Zim is to introduce the 10,062-TEU Tianjin, Zim Antwerp and Zim Rotterdam to the service, replacing three of the nine CSCL ships of 8,500 TEU currently deployed on the service, according to Alphaliner. The company's three ships will be shifted from the CES 2/AEX-2 service jointly operated by Evergreen, CSCL and Zim, which will be suspended from mid-June. A fourth 10,062-TEU ship, the Zim Djibouti, is to join the FE-USWC PNX service. Two of these units, Tianjin and Zim Rotterdam, are to be redelivered to Zim in June at the expiry of a three-year charter by Evergreen. A call at Antwerp is to be added on the AEX-1 to ensure a continuation of the direct call so far offered on the CES 2/AEX-2 service. The first Antwerp call is planned on July 16 on the sailing leaving Shanghai on June 12. Nansha will also replace Hong Kong as Pearl River area call on the way back from Europe to China.
