The Pacific Islands service will also provide connections to Tarawa (Kiribati), Majuro (Marshall Islands), Apia (Samoa), Pago Pago (American Samoa) and Nuku'alofa (Tonga). It will also improve Swire Shipping's Fiji to Vanuatu connection with three sailings per month, said the shipping line.
In conjunction with the introduction of the Pacific Islands service, Swire Shipping will enhance its Australia to Papua New Guinea (PNG) trade with an eight-day frequency from Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney to Port Moresby and Lae.
