Westbound transit times will improve by an average of seven days, eastbound by 14 days, with the first Suez sailings aboard *Maersk Denver* (voyage 627W) and *Maersk Chicago* (voyage 624E). An eastbound call at Jeddah will be added to the rotation from August. The announcement follows an earlier short-lived restoration of the MECL service in January that was reversed in March, and comes just days after the jointly operated AE15 service resumed Red Sea transits.
