In order to deeply tap the huge potential of the Southeast Asian market and further optimize and upgrade the quality of shipping services between China and Philippines, CULines is about to launch the China-Philippines weekly service NP2 (China Philippines Express Service), which will build a more efficient and convenient maritime bridge trade exchanges between China and the Philippines.

The NP2 route is scheduled to be inaugurated on January 1, 2026, in Qingda Port. For this maiden voyage, CULines has allocated the UGL SHENZHEN to perform the operational task.

The NP2 route ports are arranged in order of: Qingdao-Shanghai-Xiamen-Manila South-Qingdao, which closely connects Qingdao in North China, in East China, Xiamen in Southeast China with Manila, the economic center of the Philippines, and opens up an efficient transport chain between North China, East China, and Southeast and Manila in the Philippines, greatly shortening the time and cost of cargo transportation and providing strong support for trade exchanges between the two places.

New Qingdao-ila service 8 days NP2

Shanghai-Manila twice a week 5 days NP2/CP8

Ningbo-Manila weekly route5 days CP8

Xiamen-Manila twice a week 3 days NP2/SVP

Nanhai-Manila weekly route 3 SVP

The NP2 route is not an isolated existence, but forms a perfect complementary and synerg effect with the two existing Philippine routes CP8 and SVP of CULines. The three routes cooperate with each other, complement each other, and together construct a comprehensive and multilevel China-Philippines route service network.
