Maersk will withdraw the Far East-East Coast North America TP20 service with the
last sailing from Shanghai on 13 June 2024.
The TP20 service was re-launched on 21 April 2024 to call at Qingdao, Shanghai,
Yantian, Newark, Baltimore, Houston, Qingdao. It was to turn in 12 weeks using
up to 12 ships of 2,500 to 5,000 teu. However, the service will be suspended
after making just 8 sailings due to the shortage of ships in the market. The
removal of the service will reduce overall FE-ECNA capacity
