Wan Hai Lines to Call on Seattle Port

The Northwest Seaport Alliance's Seattle Harbor will be Wan Hai Lines’ first port of call for its new AA5 service launching in mid-March, the NWSA has announced.

The Taiwan-based international shipping firm’s new service will include stops in Kaohsiung, Yantian, Shanghai, Ningbo, Seattle and Oakland before heading back to Kaohsiung and offers direct links between Asia and the Pacific Northwest, the NWSA said.

"The Northwest Seaport Alliance has ample terminal capacity, provides efficient operations and low dwell times that ensure cargo moves quickly onto its ultimate destination,” said John Wolfe, CEO of The Northwest Seaport Alliance. “The gateway offers supply chain flexibility and low-cost transload options to our customers."

The service will call at Terminal 18 in Seattle.
