DANISH carrier Maersk has re-commenced its Far East-Europe AE-9 service it suspended in October.
The revived service will deploy vessels of 6,500-7,500 TEU and reduce sailings in February in line with the usual slump after Chinese New Year, reports Alphaliner.
The AE-9 service, with the lowest weekly capacity of 10 ships between 7,000-8,000 TEU, was one of many services on Far East-North Europe trade lane that the carrier reduced or eliminated in October.
It brings a start to this year with six weekly sailings from the Far East to North Europe in addition to the existing AE-1, AE-2, AE-6, AE-7 and AE- 10 loops.
The AE-9 will reinstate its previous port rotation of Ningbo, Shanghai, Shenzhen-Yantian, Tanjung Pelepas, Tangier, Rotterdam, Bremerhaven, Felixstowe, Zeebrugge, Valencia, Xiamen, Shanghai, Qingdao and back to Ningbo.

As we start another year, I extend these New Year Greetings to all of you around the world. At this opportune time as we prepare ourselves for the challenges facing us in 2013, allow me to give you a summary of events from the previous year together with some reflections and hopes for the future of "K" Line.
At the start of 2012, expectations for a recovery in the global economy rose but were quickly shattered due to a heavy impact from negative factors, such as the debt crisis in Europe, fiscal issues in the United States, and the economy in China, which exhibited signs of a slowdown. In November, the OECD downwardly revised its 2013 global economic growth forecast. Meanwhile, nations in the EU are working together to resolve the debt crisis plaguing Europe, such as the establishment of the European Stability Mechanism and the creation of a banking union. In the United States, we are beginning to see some bright signs. The housing market, which has been stagnant since the financial crisis, is finally touching bottom and automotive sales volume is outperforming forecasts. We can finally expect to see gradual but steady economic growth.
