Swan Service Reinstated to North Europe and Poland

Dear Customers, 

Our Swan service connecting trade between the main ports of China and North European ports in Benelux, Gdynia, Gdansk, and Klaipeda is being reinstated as a standalone MSC service.

The Swan service will provide one of the fastest transit times between China, Benelux, Poland and the Baltics. Swan will be the first service offering direct calls to Gdynia and Klaipeda from Asia. Gdynia is a well-established and flexible option as a Polish container gateway; the port will maintain the same side conditions as Gdansk.

The service will also leverage the logistics network in Saudi Arabia linking North Europe and Asia to the Gulf by calling at King Abdullah port eastbound.

The full rotation is:

Qingdao – Ningbo – Yantian – Tanjung Pelepas – Antwerp – Gdynia– Gdansk – Klaipeda – King Abdullah Port – Singapore – Qingdao

The first sailing westbound from Asia will be on 9 June.

If you wish to learn more about our Swan service, please contact your local MSC representatives in our global network of 675 offices.
