As a leading provider of reliable ocean freight solutions, Chrislion International Logistics continues to monitor major carrier network changes to help our clients optimize their transpacific supply chains.

MSC has announced significant adjustments to its Asia–North America services for the 2025-2026 season. Key services such as CHINOOK, SWAN-SENTOSA, ORIENT, PEARL, and MUSTANG will see notable rotations and port changes.

Main Port Highlights (US & Canada):

US West Coast: Los Angeles (LA), Long Beach, Oakland, Seattle, Tacoma

Canada: Vancouver

US East Coast: New York/Newark, Savannah, Charleston, Norfolk, Houston

Key Changes:

Several services will replace or adjust calls at ports like Qingdao, Shanghai, Ningbo, and Xiamen with new emphasis on Southeast Asian and Chinese hub ports.

CHINOOK and SENTOSA services are undergoing major rotations to improve schedule reliability.

Enhanced focus on faster transit times between key Chinese manufacturing hubs and major North American gateways.

These adjustments reflect MSC's strategy to strengthen its network following the integration of new capacity. For importers and exporters moving goods between China and North America, this means potential opportunities for more competitive rates and improved reliability.
