Ocean Network Express (ONE) has announced enhancements to its Trans-Pacific East Coast network, highlighted by the addition of a direct Cai Mep call on the EC2 service.
As part of this upgrade, the rotations for EC1, EC2, and EC3 will be revised to strengthen connectivity between Southeast Asia and the US East Coast, offering improved transit options and greater service flexibility.
On EC2, the eastbound route will maintain its Panama transit while adding Cai Mep and removing Xiamen.
Westbound, the service will shift to a Cape of Good Hope routing, adding Halifax and Singapore while removing Manzanillo and Pusan; cargo previously routed through Manzanillo and Pusan may alternatively move on EC1.
The current rotation from Xiamen through Yantian, Ningbo, Shanghai, Pusan, Panama, Manzanillo, Savannah, Charleston, and Norfolk will be replaced by a new rotation beginning at Cai Mep and continuing via Yantian, Ningbo, Shanghai, Pusan, Panama, Manzanillo, Savannah, Charleston, Norfolk, Halifax, the Cape of Good Hope, and Singapore, returning to Cai Mep.
These changes take effect eastbound on HMM Victory 0058E (ETA Cai Mep 22 December 2025) and westbound on Hyundai Pluto 0043W (ETA Halifax 10 December 2025). Updated transit times will be provided separately.
For EC1, eastbound routing remains unchanged, while westbound will add Manzanillo and Pusan.
The rotation will expand from its current sequence via Kaohsiung, Yantian, Shanghai, Ningbo, Pusan, Panama, New York, Norfolk, Savannah, Panama, and Rodman to include Manzanillo and a Pusan call on the return leg.
These adjustments will begin eastbound with Hyundai Saturn 0051E (ETA Kaohsiung 27 December 2025) and westbound with Conti Contessa 0022W (ETA Manzanillo 16 December 2025). Updated transit times will follow.
For EC3, eastbound routing remains unchanged, while westbound will omit Halifax; affected imports may be shifted to EC2.
The effective voyages are ONE Minato 0028E eastbound (ETA Laem Chabang 27 December 2025) and ONE München 0042W westbound (ETA Jacksonville 30 November 2025).
In November, ONE announced that the LUX Service will undergo a proforma adjustment, aiming to provide schedule reliability, stability and service improvement.
