The Russia Express Service returns


The Turkey-headquartered Arkas and its VSA partner Sealand Europe & Med, a Maersk affiliate, are restarting the seasonal Russia Express Service (Rex). The service will start in the 44th week from Mersin (Turkey). This new joint reefer service focuses on customers who ship mainly perishable cargo.

 

With a lead time of four days port-to-port from Mersin to Novorossiysk (Russia), Rex brings Turkish perishable products to the Russian market on a weekly basis. The weekly rotation will be Mersin – Novorossiysk – Mersin. The service will commence with the departure of “Emma A” from Mersin on 2 November 2019.

 

The two carriers’ VSA will be maintained with Arkas Line operating one out of two vessels with an average 600 plug capacity. Cosco Line will also be participating in this service under a slot agreement. (fd)
