Abstract: Since the 1990s, the liner shipping company has become the dominant factor of port system evolution, and the mechanism of liner network formation has become a hot research area. Taking the Yangtze River Delta as a case study area, the article builds evaluation index system of calling port selection from port infrastructure, container throughput, port efficiency, port charges, supporting industries and supporting policies. Then the paper quantitatively measures the influence factors of calling port selection in the Yangtze River Delta by using multivariate linear regression model. On this basis, the thesis verifies the results of quantitative analysis by questionnaire interviews, selecting the port logistics nodes, such as port, liner shipping company, cargo owner and freight forwarders. The results showed that qualitative analysis and quantitative analysis results are basically the same. Container throughput and port charges are the most important factors of calling port selection in the Yangtze River Delta, the secondly is port infrastructure and port efficiency, the last is policy environment and supporting industries.In recent years, the impact of policies is becoming more and more significant.

Key words: liner shipping company, liner route, port of call, the Yangtze River Delta
