Gulf China Service 2 broadens PIL's Middle East coverage
Pacific International Lines (PIL) has announced the addition of a new route known as Gulf China Service 2 in an effort to consistently improve connections from Asia and broaden its coverage of the Middle East (GC2). The new Gulf China Service (GCS) and China Gulf Service (CGS) from PIL are enhanced by GC2 (CSG).
The primary benefit of GC2 is that it will have direct calls to Jebel Ali in the United Arab Emirates as well as Sohar in Oman (UAE). Today, Jebel Ali, Dammam, and Hamad in Qatar are the calls for GCS in the Middle East, whereas Jebel Ali, Dammam, and Abu Dhabi in the UAE are the demands for CSG.
By increasing its presence in the Middle East with GC2, PIL will be able to improve its connectivity with China and South East Asia. PIL will be able to improve its global connectivity through the important Asian gateways of Singapore and Malaysia to its wide network in the Middle East thanks to this extra dedicated service.
A slot exchange arrangement with ESL Shipping will allow GC2 to launch on March 17, 2023, from Shanghai.
The GC2 service stops at the following ports: Shanghai, Ningbo, Xiamen, Dachan Bay, Port Klang, Jebel Ali, Sohar, Port Klang, and Shanghai.
