To enhance schedule reliability and provide a more consistent service offering, Maersk will combine the current A04 and A14 services into an enhanced A14 service from late September 2026.
The adjustment is intended to further enhance network reliability and service consistency while maintaining connectivity across North China and Southeast Asia through a consolidated service structure. Following the implementation, the standalone A04 service will be discontinued, while relevant cargo coverage will be incorporated into the enhanced A14 service.
The enhanced A14 service will operate with the following rotation:
Xingang (S) - Tanjung Pelepas - Singapore - Xiamen - Busan – Xingang (E) - Dalian - Busan
The key transition sailings for the A04 and enhanced A14 services are outlined below. Detailed vessel and voyage information will be reflected in our online schedules and communicated through the usual booking channels.
| Service | Direction | Vessel/Voyage | First load port | ETA (DD/MM/YY) | Remark |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| A04 | Southbound | Seaspan Lingue/639S | Dalian | 23-09-2026 | Final sailing |
| A14 | Eastbound | UTE/639E | Xingang | 26-09-2026 | 1st sailing under new setup |
| A14 | Southbound | Seaspan Lingue/640S | Xingang | 29-09-2026 | 1st sailing under new setup |
Our overall goal is to minimize disruption to customers during the transition and maintain cargo connectivity through the revised service structure. Alternative routing solutions have been offered to affected customers where required, and bookings can continue to be placed through the usual channels.
