MSC

MSC has announced its new Sunrise service, connecting Japan, Korea and Russia, effective from week 49 to enhance its connections in the intra-Asia network.

The Sunrise will be a weekly service opening a new route between Japan, Korea and the major container ports in eastern Russia,Vladivostok and Vostochniy, offering additional business opportunities to its customers. This new service is intended to complement MSC’s recently updated Golden Horn service, which operates between northern China, Korea and Russia.

These two services aim to not only offer new perspectives at a regional level but also at a global level in terms of access to the most important rail gateways linking Asia to Europe via Vladivostok.
