Taiwan’s Wan Hai Lines will launch a new intra-Asia service from 1 February with three 700 teu container vessels.

The new weekly service, named Japan Kansai-Haiphong Service (JSH2), will have a port rotation of Hakata, Moji, Incheon, Dalian, Kaohsiung, Hong Kong, Haiphong, Fang Cheng, Hong Kong and Kaohsiung.

The latest JSH2 will be Wan Hai’s third Haiphong string, enhancing the line’s mainstay of network in intra-Asia.

“Not only will this provide a premium service from Japan, Korea, Dalian to Haiphong directly but also serve Guangxi province through gateway port, Fang Cheng,” Wan Hai said in a statement
