Hi Chris

In moment it looks like she is at the AE10 route, and there is no UK port at this route as i can see. But for us in Hamburg it's the same, if we want to see her we must go to Bremerhaven.

Kind regards
Joerg

You're right, Joerg, there's no UK port on Asia-Europe 10, but when Maersk introduced Emma Maersk, she made a call at Felixstowe . . I'm fairly convinced that Maersk will put one of the Triple-E's into a UK port for a trial, and I'm equally convinced that the port will be London Gateway.

In fact, if I were DP World, I'd pay Maersk for the privilege - the publicity value of having the world's biggest container ship calling at the world's news container terminal would be pretty serious . . Or Felixstowe might fancy doing the same!
