Maersk – Temporary Booking Restriction to Sydney

18/9/2020

To our Valued Customers,

 

We have been advised by Maersk Australia of the following:

 

“Due to ongoing congestion and industrial action at Sydney port, Maersk has experienced disruption to our network schedule, causing significant delays from proforma schedule.

 

To remove uncertainty for our customers supply chain and to assist handling of our vessels calling Sydney, Maersk is taking the difficult decision to temporarily stop acceptance of all new bookings from Asia, Europe, Middle East, Africa and India Sub-Continent to Sydney effective immediately.

 

It is expected we will re-open booking acceptance for Sydney from 1st October, but will continue to review the situation and open earlier if possible.

 

Booking acceptance remains open for all other Australian Ports.”

 

Please feel free to contact your BRi Customer Solutions Representative, should you have any questions in relation to this matter.

 

Keeping you updated,

BRi Customer Solutions Team
