The Loadstar has reported that Ellerman City Liners is making a temporary return to the Asia-Europe trade, announcing two summer sailings that will offer a fresh injection of capacity to UK importers.
In a move reminiscent of the pandemic, when after a series of ad hoc charter sailings Ellerman launched a scheduled weekly China-UK express service in 2022, chiefly between Da Chan and Tilbury, the company announced this week it would revive the service in June and July.
“This new route will see two vessels making two voyages to and from Ningbo and Da Chan Bay, to Casablanca into Tilbury,” said the company.
The 2,700 teu Cape Hellas is scheduled to depart Ningbo on 16 June, calling at Da Chan Bay and Casablanca and arriving at Tilbury on 26 July.
