The IA-3 is an extension of MCC's existing service, the Indonesia Feeder service 3 (INA-3) which covered Surabaya (Indonesia) - Tanjung Pelepas (Malaysia) – Singapore (Singapore). On a bi-weekly basis two vessels on the IA-3 will cover the ports of Laem Chabang (Thailand) - Tanjung Pelepas (Malaysia) – Singapore (Singapore) - Jakarta (Indonesia) – Surabaya (Indonesia) – Tanjung Pelepas (Malaysia) – Singapore (Singapore) – Laem Chabang (Thailand).

Asia Europe service – New port call in Felixstowe, United Kingdom Effective May 2009, the Asia/Europe service AE1 will start calling Felixstowe before Rotterdam on its westbound rotation.

Both the Le Havre and Southampton calls will be removed. Le Havre will be covered on another AE service and alternative coverage is being planned for Southampton but only for limited merchant haulage volumes. Details will be communicated as soon as these plans have been finalised. New westbound rotation will be Kobe (Japan), Nagoya (Japan), Shimizu (Japan), Yokohama (Japan), Nansha (China), Yantian (China), Tanjung Pelepas (Malaysia), Felixstowe (United Kingdom), Rotterdam (The Netherlands), Hamburg (Germany), Bremerhaven (Germany), Salalah (Oman), Nansha (China), Da Chan Bay (China), Ningbo (China), Shanghai (China), Kaohsiung (Taiwan). First AE1 vessel westbound with new rotation is Sine Maersk 0906, with estimated departure on 5 May 2009
