2M Alliance changes sailing programme of Asia to North America services
2M Alliance, comprising Maersk and MSC, has decided to adjust the sailing programme on its Asia to US and Canada network to match the actual departure dates from Asia.
MSC said that this action is necessary due to the current challenging market situation impacting port activities and generating congestion across the supply chain.
Therefore, the largest container alliance will revise the voyage numbers on the following services aiming to provide better schedule reliability.
