CU Lines will launch its new CN1 service, establishing a connection between China and Indonesia, as reported by Container News. This new offering is scheduled to commence operations in mid-September 2026, enhancing maritime logistics in the region.
The CN1 service will operate through a slot agreement on an existing joint service. This joint service is currently managed by CNC Line, COSCO Shipping Lines, and OOCL, according to Container News.
Container News noted that the joint service is known by multiple designations, including CHN1, SIS1, and CIP1. This collaboration allows CU Lines to expand its network without deploying its own vessels on the route.
CNC Line, a participant in the joint service, operates as the intra-Asia subsidiary of CMA CGM. This structure highlights the interconnected nature of major shipping lines in regional trade, Container News reported.
The new CN1 service will follow a specific rotation, beginning in Shanghai. Further details on the complete port rotation were not provided in the source material by Container News.
