2M Alliance’s Eagle/TP1 service returns to Seattle

2M Alliance, comprising Maersk and Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC), has announced that it will reinstate Seattle calls on its Eagle/TP1 service, connecting East Asia with America's West Coast.

Hence, after the announcement of the omission of Seattle in October, "due to increased waiting time for vessel berthing," 2M has now decided to restart calls at the US port, with the first sailing being Maersk Seville on voyage 214N, estimated to depart Kaohsiung on 10 April.

The revised port rotation will be as follows:

Kaohsiung (Taiwan) – Xiamen (China) – Yantian (China) – Ningbo (China) – Shanghai (China) – Busan (South Korea) – Vancouver (Canada) – Seattle (Washington) – Yokohama (Japan) – Busan (South Korea) – Kaohsiung (Taiwan)
