Ocean Network Express (ONE) has announced strategic enhancements to its FE1 and FE3 services on the Asia–North Europe trade lane, with all sailings routed via the Cape of Good Hope. These adjustments are designed to strengthen schedule reliability, extend port coverage, and reduce end-to-end transit times to major European gateways.

FE1 Service Enhancement  

The FE1 service will incorporate a direct port call at Le Havre—replacing the previous call at Algeciras. The revised rotation is as follows: Laem Chabang → Colombo → Singapore → Rotterdam → Hamburg → Le Havre → (via Cape of Good Hope) → Singapore → Laem Chabang. This updated service pattern will commence with vessel ONE Hamburg (Voyage 008SW/E), scheduled to arrive at Laem Chabang on 6 June 2026 and at Le Havre on 27 July 2026.

FE3 Service Enhancement  

The FE3 service will undergo a resequencing of its North European port calls to optimize transit efficiency—specifically accelerating delivery to Felixstowe and Antwerp. The new rotation is: Qingdao → Ningbo → Yantian → Singapore → Felixstowe → Antwerp → Hamburg → (via Cape of Good Hope) → Qingdao. Algeciras has been removed from the loop. Implementation begins with vessel HMM Dublin (Voyage 0019W/E), with an estimated arrival at Qingdao on 11 June 2026 and at Felixstowe on 29 July 2026.
