ONE and Yang Ming Enhance Europe–Med Route, Add Alexandria

Ocean Network Express (ONE) and Taiwanese carrier Yang Ming are consolidating their North Europe, Mediterranean (NEUR-Med) services into a streamlined offering. Under this arrangement, the formerly separate Levant Express (LEX) and Aegean Express (AEX) services previously including Evergreen will now operate under a unified and enhanced Levant Express, using only ONE service codes.

 The revised rotation excludes port calls at Piraeus (Greece), Gemlik (Turkey), and Haifa (Israel). It remains unclear whether Evergreen will continue its previous contribution of a vessel.

 The new route will cover:
  • Southampton (UK)
  • Rotterdam (Netherlands)
  • Antwerp (Belgium)
  • Hamburg (Germany)
  • Alexandria (Egypt)
  • Mersin (Turkey)
  • Damietta (Egypt)
  • Izmit (Turkey)
  • Istanbul (Turkey)
  • Aliaga (Turkey)
  • Return to Southampton


This merger is aimed at simplifying operations and delivering a more efficient shipping service for cargo traffic between North Europe and the Mediterranean trade lane
