Dear Members,
Sharing latest insights on UAE shipping and trade:
• Strait of Hormuz situation continues to impact vessel routing and transit times
• Increased feeder dependency via Nhava Sheva, Khorfakkan, Fujairah
• Additional trucking + feeder costs expected for disrupted shipments
• Delays of 20–35 days observed for certain connections
• Carriers reviewing allocations and capacity adjustments
Market Outlook:
- Demand remains stable, but operational disruptions affecting reliability
- Potential increase in freight and surcharges in coming weeks
Would like to hear from members:
1) Are you facing similar delays?
2) Any alternate routing strategies working better?
3) Customer feedback on additional costs?
Let’s discuss and share updates.
Regards,
XeNoN
