The newly introduced service features a comprehensive
port rotation: Mundra – Nhava Sheva – Jeddah – King Abdullah – Sokhna – Aqaba –
King Abdullah – Jeddah – Mundra, strengthening maritime connectivity between
India and key ports across the Middle East region. The introduction of the JJS service is
expected to enhance service reliability and provide greater stability to trade
flows, particularly in the context of the evolving situation in the Middle
East. The service will support Indian exporters and importers by ensuring
continued access to critical markets and improving supply chain resilience. Earlier this month, PSA Mumbai also
welcomed the German-flagged Ultra Large Container Vessel (ULCV) Damietta
Express with a capacity of approximately 23,664 TEUs and measuring about
399–400 metres in length and 61 metres in beam. This was the first time such a
large vessel has berthed at a terminal at JN Port.
The Port Authority acknowledges the efforts and
commitment of its world-class terminal operators, whose operational excellence
enables JNPA to scale new heights.
