Reorganization of the Sirius service

CMA CGM is reorganizing its Sirius service, which connects the Mediterranean to the East Coast of South America from March 2020.

The new port rotation will focus on the central ports of Algeciras and Tangier, from where connections will be made to and from Mediterranean ports with its extensive internal network, including feeder services.

New configuration of the SIRIUS service:

The weekly service will be maintained with 6 vessels (of which 2 are operated by CMA CGM) instead of the current 7;
Mediterranean ports will be served via transhipment with connection services, maintaining competitive transit times;
The service for the River Plate ports will be via transhipment with competitive transit times offered via its subsidiary Mercosul Line;
The changes will take effect southbound with the departure of the “Maersk Lamanai” sailing from Genoa on March 29, 2020 and Valencia on April 1, 2020, and northbound with the departure of the “Maersk Lamanai” from Itaguaí on March 11, 2020.
