Felixstowe - Hamburg - Antwerp - Piraeus - Istanbul - Gemlik - Izmit - Aliaga - Felixstowe 

The last EMX sailing calling Izmir will be: 

  • Heron Hunter (Voyage 036S) with ETS Antwerp on October 23, 2020 and ETA Izmir on November 4, 2020

The first EMX sailing with the new rotation including Gemlik will be: 

  • ALS Juno (Voyage 012S) with ETS Antwerp on October 30 and ETA Gemlik on November 10, 2020
