Rotation
Where HMM via Colombo loads, changes ship and discharges
HMM gives no service code for these sailings in the schedule feed, so this page groups its India sailings by where they change ship: Colombo. The schedule feed shows where the ship loads in India, where cargo changes ship, and the US port it is delivered to. It does not give the full list of every port a ship calls at, so this is the India–USA part of the rotation.
