Contship Containerlines and France's CGM and Marfret will merge their
round-the-world container shipping services.
They said the alliance will improve their service frequency.
Contship, which was acquired recently by Canadian Pacific Ltd., runs
every 14 days, and CGM and Marfret sail every 16 days.
The new service will provide 10-day frequency, using eight 2,200
twenty-foot-equivilent-unit vessels. Four will be new ships being built
for Contship and the other four will come from CGM and Marfret.

So...do they plan any regular service to the Port of Philadelphia? I thought that the members of the North Atlantic shipping cartel decided not to service Philly regularly about a year or two ago. -- Sandy Smith, Exile on Market Street, Philadelphia smiths@pobox.upenn.edu University Relations, U. of Pennsylvania 215.898.1423/fax 215.898.1203 I speak for myself here, not for Penn http://pobox.upenn.edu/~smiths/ "There is only one thing worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about." -------------------------------------------------------------Oscar Wilde--
