Xeneta: transpacific-Asia-Europe rate gap widens past $3,300 per box

Summary

Xeneta put Asia-US West Coast rates at $7,295/FEU in week 35, up more than 20% month-on-month, while Asia-Europe fell about 11% over the same period. The spread between US coasts has widened to over $3,300 per container (roughly $7,200 west vs $10,500+ east). Drewry's WCI shows the same split as carriers defend Pacific rates and Suez return pressure hits Europe.
