eeSea Trade Lane Review: Far East - Europe

Written By Destine Ozuygur

This week we wrap up our in-depth exploration of how Premier Alliance and Gemini Cooperation transitions will shape the future of container shipping and planned capacity distribution in early 2025.

Key highlights:

  • MSC's exceptional participation with Premier Alliance, a shift over from their non-alliance presence in the Americas.

  • Mid-transition proforma capacity slump will persist for an additional 1-2 weeks, especially pronounced in THE Alliance to Premier Alliance transition.

  • The possibility of a return to the Suez Canal will strongly impact how capacity and schedule reliability shifts in Q3 and Q4 on this trade.

  • The carryover of service namesakes hold even less weight when longer roundtrip times increase the ubiquity of port call alterations.
