It will be served by a consortium of vessels with an average capacity of 1,800~2,200 TEUs, jointly deployed by PIL and its partners.
 
Mr Surendran Mathilagath, Head of Intra-Asia Services, PIL, said, “The launch of this new KCS service is part of our ongoing efforts to better serve our customers with an enhanced coverage in Asia.
