Hapag-Lloyd has restructured its European Express Service (EEX) that calls at ports in north Europe, Greece and Turkey by doubling the number of weekly departures.
Both services, the EEX 1 and EEX 2, will be run in cooperation with MSC line, serving the ports of Izmir and Piraeus twice a week. The service will make port of calls in Istanbul, Thessaloniki and Gemlik once a week, a company statement said.
In north Europe, the ports of Felixstowe and Antwerp will be visited by both services, while the EEX 1 will call at Le Havre, and the EEX2 will serve Sines in Portugal.
