- BCP-compatible Solution to Temporary Suspension/Reduction of Flights from Shanghai -
Nippon Express (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. (hereinafter "NE Shanghai"), a local subsidiary of Nippon Express Co., Ltd., has launched an in-house consolidated service -- "Kansai Special Rapid Service" -- using extremely reliable high-speed ferries from Shanghai to Osaka/Kobe, with the first departure being Saturday, September 18.
Background to service development
The increasingly strict biosecurity measures imposed at Shanghai Pudong Airport have resulted in a continual string of flight cancellations by airlines, make it difficult to rely on air transport, while congestion at Shanghai Port has put container vessels considerably behind schedule. These circumstances have given rise to greater need for LCL (small-lot consolidation) services offering speed and punctuality, and Nippon Express developed the "Kansai Special Rapid Service" in-house consolidated service as a BCP-compatible solution that uses high-speed ferries to transport cargo from the Shanghai CFS to the Osaka CFS/Kobe CFS in five days.
