Trasmed cuts Cadiz-Canaries service
CADIZ 09 January – In a major shake up of its Canary Island services, Spanish ferry operator Acciona Trasmediterranea will this week move two of its largest ferries, the Superfast Andalucia and the Superfast Canarias, from Cadiz to the ports of Barcelona and Valencia. Cadiz is expected to lose up to 600 trucks a week currently using Trasmed's services to the Canary Islands. The move has sparked outrage from Cadiz's freight forwarder’s association, which claims it will lose up to three-quarters of its existing maritime trade and hundreds of jobs. Acciona Trasmediterranea’s decision to transfer the two ferries to ports closer to Spain’s major industrial and service production areas has not affected the position of the ferries Sorolla and Galicia, which will continue to serve the Canary Islands from Cadiz.
