Europe to/from North America Services Port of Rotterdam Update

Collective Labour Agreement (CLA) negotiations between terminals and unions have heralded ‘go-slow’ action across the Port of Rotterdam since Tuesday 6th December 2022, including at the Hutchison Ports Delta II and Maasvlakte II terminals.

A.P. Moller – Maersk would like to inform customers that an agreement has now been reached between the concerned parties and operations at Hutchison Ports Delta II returned to normal service levels on 22nd December 2022.

At Maasvlakte II, operations normalised on Friday 16th December 2022. Union and terminal continue discussions in good faith; however the situation could change at short notice. We will keep customers informed of the latest developments as soon as possible.

Since the go-slow action was announced, Maersk teams have been working hard to minimise the impact on customers by drawing up a number of contingency plans and diverting cargo to other European ports.

In order to keep operations as smooth as possible, TA1 and CANADA ATLANTIC EXPRESS services will resume normal operations in Rotterdam Delta II as from:

• TA1 / MAERSK IOWA / 302W
• CAE / MAERSK VISTULA / 301W

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to your local Customer Experience representative.

Thank you for your trust and understanding during this time and we look forward to continuing to serve your logistics needs in future.
