Cancellation announced
Across the major trades: Transpacific, Transatlantic, and Asia-North Europe & Med, 24 canceled sailings have been announced between weeks 31 and 34, out of a total of 496 scheduled sailings, representing a 5% cancellation rate. Over the next 4 weeks, The Alliance has announced 11.5 cancellations, followed by 2M and Ocean Alliance with 7 and 5.5 cancellations, respectively.
High rate accepted
The summer peak season is now adding further stress to an already overwhelmed supply chain. With carriers cutting weekly contract allocations, shippers and BCO’s find themselves having to accept the very high rates and various additional premiums to stand any chance of their cargo being loaded on time.
