TS Lines (TSL), APL (CGM CGM Group) and Gold Star Line (GSL) will introduce in mid-April a weekly service directly connecting China, Central and southern Vietnam and Cambodia through its main gateway Sihanoukville. APL will advertise this service under its Intra-Asia brand Cheng Lie Navigation (APL-CNC) and it will brand it as ‘China Vietnam Cambodia’ service (CVC), as will do TSL, while GSL will market it as ‘China Sihanoukville Vietnam’ service (CSV) (See details).

The ‘CVC / CSV’ service will turn in three weeks using three ‘Bangkokmax’ vessels (1,700-1,800 teu). It will cover Shanghai, Ningbo, Shekou, Hong Kong, Danang, Sihanoukville, Ho Chi Minh City, Shekou, Shanghai. The first effective sailing is scheduled on 18 April from Shanghai.

This new service will allow TS Lines to serve Danang directly for the first time and to reinstate calls at Sihanoukville, that TSL used to serve from May 2017 to November 2018. It will boost APL and GSL coverage of Cambodia, offering direct links with Central and South China as well as with Central Vietnam. It will also cater to the growing trade between the neighbouring countries of Cambodia and Vietnam.

德翔海運（T.S. Lines）繼三月開闢華中北-胡志明快船航線（NCX2）以來，將於四月份新又開闢中國-越南-柬埔寨航線（China-Vietnam-Cambodia Service,簡稱CVC航線），該航線自四月十八日起從上海開航，德翔海運為第二船位,於四月二十五日於上海投入一艘BKKMAX型貨櫃船。

掛靠港口順序為上海（Shanghai）-寧波（Ningbo）-蛇口（Shekou）-香港（Hong Kong）-峴港（Danang）-西哈努克（Sihanoukville）-胡志明（Hochiminh）-蛇口（Shekou）-上海（Shanghai），巡航一次共計21天。

該公司表示，柬埔寨與越南間宣佈關閉兩國邊境並實施嚴格檢疫通關規定，預期中國直達柬埔寨西哈努克港需求會上升，柬埔寨貨主也會改由西哈努克港直接出口中國與其他國家，再加上越南銷往中國的水果,冷凍水產貨量需求增加，該公司開闢此航線，可提供貨主中國／越南／柬埔寨間的快航服務。

此外，德翔海運將藉由香港與蛇口的中轉樞紐優勢，可以有效搭配現有的亞洲航線，提供亞洲各地貨主經由香港與蛇口進出越南與柬埔寨的便捷服務。
