Arkas Line and Turkon Line have expanded their jointly operated Turkey–Red Sea–India (TRI) service by introducing a new port call at Safaga, Egypt , further strengthening connectivity between the eastern Mediterranean, the Red Sea and the Indian subcontinent, accordig to DynaLiners. The addition of Safaga forms part of the carriers’ efforts to enhance regional coverage while offering customers greater flexibility for cargo moving between Turkey, Egypt, Saudi Arabia and India. The revised network is expected to improve access to Egypt’s Red Sea coast and provide an additional gateway for importers and exporters serving the region. Under the revised schedule, the service will rotate through Ambarli, Izmit, Aliaga, Mersin, Iskenderun, Safaga, Jeddah, Nhava Sheva, Mundra, Jeddah, Safaga, Iskenderun, Mersin and back to Ambarli . Safaga has become an increasingly important gateway for cargo moving into Upper Egypt and neighbouring markets. By incorporating the port into the TRI rotation, Arkas and Turkon are expanding their regional network while providing another option for customers trading through the Red Sea corridor. The service continues to connect several of Turkey’s main export hubs with key ports in Saudi Arabia and India’s west coast. Meanwhile, the additional Egyptian call is expected to improve cargo distribution across the region without altering the service’s direct links with India. The latest revision reflects the continued adjustments carriers are making to their service networks as demand patterns evolve across the Mediterranean, Middle East and South Asia. Network refinements, including new port calls and revised rotations, remain a common strategy for improving schedule reliability and strengthening regional connectivity.
