Temporary Booking Suspension to Australia – AAA network
Temporary
Booking Suspension to Australia – AAA network
Due to the continuing terminal
congestion caused by
industrial actions in Australia, the AAA network has been severely disrupted
with vessels being held up waiting for berths. To avoid long idling of containers
and to minimize the uncertainty of customers’ supply chain management, OOCL
regretfully advises that we will temporarily stop accepting new bookings for
two weeks with immediate effect from Asia, Middle East, Indian sub-continent,
Europe, North America, Latin America and Africa to Australian ports covered by
the AAA1/AAA2/ASA/AWX services.
OOCL is
currently reviewing all alternatives to reopen booking acceptance earlier on
the AAA network, if possible, and we will advise our customers with the latest
update. For reefer bookings, we ask you to contact your local sales or customer
service representative to discuss the available options.
Thank you for
your understanding on this difficult decision, and we look forward to your
ongoing support in the future.
Should you
have any queries regards the above, please contact your local sales executive or
Customer Service team.
Yours faithfully,
OOCL (Australia) Pty Ltd.
