Maersk reports further East Asia network recovery

Maersk has reported further progress in the recovery of its East Asia network following disruption caused by the region’s typhoon season. Operational conditions at East China ports have improved, while vessel waiting times have continued to decline compared with previous weeks. However, strong export demand from Asia continues to place pressure on congested ports. Regional recovery remains ongoing Maersk said the direct impact of recent typhoon activity has largely subsided, although recovery across the wider regional network remains ongoing. Conditions across the port network continue to affect cargo flows and the recovery of vessel schedules.
