European ports are at an end. The containers are copied and there is no one to transport them – HNonline.sk

“In the northern hemisphere, we are entering the winter season, which will also bring a return to the common challenges: snow, wind and closing terminals. We don’t know what will happen. “ said in an interview with BBC 5 Lars Mikael Jensen, who leads the world’s largest shipping network in the largest shipping company Maersk. “I can’t judge if we’re behind the worst,” he admitted.

The seasonal deterioration will only add to the already overcrowded ports, where, according to another global carrier, Kuehne + Nagel, 584 container ships were “jammed” worldwide on Friday.

That’s according to Financial Times twice as many as last year’s figures. Several European shipping stations are now facing a difficult situation. In Britain’s largest in Felixstow, according to Jensen, some of the ships waited for anchoring for four to seven days.

Problems, albeit to a lesser extent, have not escaped even the most important European transhipments. The wait in Hamburg lasted for almost three days, and cargo vessels have been in Antwerp for a similar length of time. In Rotterdam, the delay climbs to four days.
