G6 ALLIANCE members have announced changes to their Loop 7 and Loop 4 services between Asia and Europe, which includes a Gdansk call that rivals the 2M Alliance.

The carriers, APL, Hapag-Lloyd, Hyundai, MOL, NYK and OOCL, have added a call to Gdansk and dropped a westbound call to Port Said on their Loop 7 service with the June 20 sailing of the Hong Kong Express from Qingdao.

Now Loop 7 will rotate through Qingdao, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Shenzhen-Yantian, Singapore, Rotterdam, Hamburg, Gdansk, Southampton, Singapore, Shenzhen-Yantian and Qingdao.

Loop 4 will add westbound Port Said call - that was dropped from Loop 7 with the July 3 sailing of the Shanghai Express from Ningbo.

Now Loop 4 will rotate through Ningbo, Shanghai, Shenzhen-Yantian, Singapore, Port Said, Le Havre, Southampton, Hamburg, Rotterdam, Port Said, Jeddah, Singapore, Hong Kong and Ningbo.

With the call at Poland`s big port, G6 is going against 2M Alliance`s Gdansk string, operated by its two members, Maersk and the Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC).
