CMA CGM's adjustment to the "INDAMEX" route means that its voyage will be shortened to 11 weeks, with one ship sailing every week, compared with the previous voyage of 12 weeks.
In the plan, 11 ships with a capacity between 8,500 and 9,950 TEUs will be deployed on this route, calling at major ports in the following order:Port Qasim, Nhava Sheva, Mundra, Jeddah, Damietta, Port of Tangier (westbound calls only), New York, Norfolk, Savannah, Charleston, and finally return to Damietta and Jeddah until you return to the starting point of Port Qasim.
