Update Congestion Situation in Rotterdam and Antwerp
We would like to inform you about the existing delays in the seaports of Antwerp and Rotterdam: Waiting times in Rotterdam are currently up to 90 hours. In Antwerp, waiting times of up to 32 hours are occurring.
We would therefore like to point out once again that arrival times cannot be guaranteed and closings cannot be kept. We must therefore disclaim any liability for any resulting costs (e.g. demurrage and detention) as a precaution.
