Crowley Liner Services will begin fixed-day, weekly sailings on Wednesday, Aug. 9, directly between Florida and Costa Rica and Panama. The new service offers fast transits to speed cargo to market at peak times to better connect customers’ U.S. and Central American supply chains.
Crowley’s vessels will sail southbound from Florida on Wednesdays from the Port of Jacksonville, and Fridays from Port Everglades, and will arrive Tuesdays in Puerto Limon, Costa Rica, and Wednesdays in Manzanillo, Panama.
Northbound, the ships will depart Wednesdays from Panama and Fridays from Costa Rica, then arrive Tuesdays in Port Everglades and Wednesdays in Jacksonville.
