30/10/2025

MSC is pleased to announce that it is integrating its Oryx and Origami Services to create an enhanced Origami Service directly connecting Japan, South Korea, China and Singapore with Tanzania and Kenya. The first vessel on the new rotation will be the MSC General IV (voyage number JL546A) sailing from Tokyo on 9 November 2025.

Tokyo – Yokohama – Yokkaichi – Nagoya – Busan – Ningbo – Singapore – Mombasa – Dar es Salam – Singapore – Kaohsiung – Busan - Tokyo
