Christening of the “Rio de Janeiro Express” | Hapag-Lloyd

Welcoming a new state-of-the-art vessel to our fleet: the “Rio de Janeiro Express”! 🥁 🎉
In order to do so, a festive naming ceremony was held at the port of Manzanillo, Mexico. 🇲🇽 Along with its sister vessels, the “Rio de Janeiro Express” spans a length of 335 meters and a width of 51 meters. The new addition to our fleet can carry up to 13,200 20-foot standard containers and offers a remarkable number of 2,220 reefer plugs for temperature-sensitive cargo.
👉 Our “Rio de Janeiro Express” will operate in the AN1 service, having embarked on her journey from Busan, South Korea, and sailing directly to Manzanillo. Subsequently, she will continue her voyage to further ports, including Lazaro Cardenas, Callao, Iquique, Puerto Angamos, Valparaiso, Coronel, and finally back to Asia, calling at Yantian, Hong Kong, Keelung, Shanghai, and Ningbo, before returning to Busan once again. 🌎
