MSC Mediterranean Shipping Company would like to inform you about a blank sailings program on our Asia-Europe network during weeks 1-12 2020 to rationalize the capacity supply during this period.

The change will help us to match capacity with the expected weaker market demand for shipping services.

However, you may continue to place your bookings with limited disruption as we are arranging a contingency plan with alternative services.
