CNC has enhanced its JTX intra-Asia service by introducing new port calls at Shantou, China, and Batangas, Philippines, expanding connectivity across key Asian markets.
The revamped service is designed to strengthen CNC’s regional network linking Japan, China, Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, and the Philippines, while offering faster and more efficient cargo movements.
A key feature of the upgraded JTX service is the first-ever direct shipping connection between Shantou and Thailand and Cambodia, providing exporters in eastern Guangdong with improved access to Southeast Asian markets.
The service also introduces a dedicated direct connection to Batangas, enabling seamless cargo flows from Laem Chabang, Thailand, and Vung Tau, Vietnam, to the Philippine port. In addition, exporters shipping from Batangas to Japan will benefit from an additional cargo cut-off window, offering greater flexibility for Japan-bound shipments.
The revised port rotation for the JTX service is:
Tokyo – Yokohama – Nagoya – Shantou – Nansha – Laem Chabang – Sihanoukville – Vung Tau – Batangas – Tokyo.
The service enhancement underscores CNC’s commitment to strengthening intra-Asia trade lanes by expanding direct port coverage and improving schedule flexibility for customers across the region.
