Vessel Change - Where is The BBC Box? NYKU

The BBC gives the name of the vessel which will take The Box to China.

M/V Copenhagen Express

They fooled us. I think they gave the original date as 25 Sept., but this vessel will sail 24 Sept. I guess they didn't want hordes of people showing up to see the container loaded.

This is the schedule.

M/V Copenhagen Express, Voyage 024263

Southampton 23-24 Sept

Ningbo 15 Oct.

Xiamen 15-16 Oct.

Singapore 16-17 Oct.

Shanghai 20-21 Oct.

This is a Hapag-Lloyd vessel. I was a little surprised they did not make sure it loaded on an NYK vessel. Hapag-Lloyd and NYK are in a vessel sharing agreement, which is similiar to a "code share" by airlines.


Update 5:30 PMFollow The Container has been updated with pictures and stats with the M/V Copenhagen Express.
