With Arctic summer navigation well underway, Chinese operator Newnew Shipping is expanding the service it begun in 2023. Last year it made 13 Northern Sea Route voyages moving 20,000 containers. It is expecting to increase that number this year. Another Chinese niche operator, Sea Legend Shipping, is also expected to launch a liner service between China and northern Europe. The seasonal offering is reported to consist of an 18-day trip between Qingdao, Shanghai and Ningbo to Felixstowe, Rotterdam, Hamburg and Gdansk. The reports suggest it will be the first service of its kind connecting several Asian and European ports along the same route.\u00a0"}
