The new Amerigo service will start without interruption with the current service, leaving Livorno (aka Leghorn in Tuscany) on October 2 on its west-bound leg and New York on October 20 on its east-bound return.
The service will deploy six CMA CGM ships and take 42 days on its rotation through Malta, Livorno, Genoa, Marseilles/Fos-sur-mer, Barcelona, Valencia (west bound), New York, Norfolk, Savannah, Miami, Tangiers, Valencia (east bound) and back to Malta.
The new offer of service to Mexico is based on a weekly connection with Victory Bridge in Miami, allowing the development of the West Med/Mexico trade, with a faster transit times with transshipment in Miami, which maintains links to Houston via the Florida loop.
CMA CGM control of operations means optimised vessel planning, more out-of-gauge, breakbulk, IMO and reefer capacity, coverage of West Med port as well as Florida and access to the Mexican market via Miami, as well schedule reliability, the company said.
