MSC is pleased to announce that, to deliver faster transit times from South Africa to NWC for January and February 2026 sailings, the Eastern Cape Express will change its name to the Western Cape Express – featuring a port call at Cape Town instead of Gqeberha.

This strategic change will deliver faster and more reliable access to London Gateway and Rotterdam, particularly benefitting the needs of the region’s fresh produce exporters.

The first vessel on the new rotation will be the MSC TANIA, voyage WM601R (week 02 sailing) with the following service rotation: Walvis Bay – Cape Town – San Pedro – London Gateway – Rotterdam – Antwerp – Le Havre
