The TRS service will connect the ports of Mersin, Iskenderun, Jeddah, and Aqaba on a "weekly" basis with vessels equipped with berthing windows, providing regular voyages.
In addition to our transit services from Ambarli, Gebze, Gemlik, and Aliaga ports, loading can be accepted for Jeddah and Aqaba ports.
