Sea-bongdaso com vn is “barely viable” for shippers looking for a shortcut amid Red Sea diversions, as congestion at key transshipment points has increased lead times.
Director and founder of Aeromar sea bongdaso com vn, Nick Coverdale, told The Loadstar: “There is congestion at the ocean transit points Port Klang and Singapore, and congestion at Jebel Ali is up to seven days from arrival of vessel to berthing. Then, if you’re not using Emirates, there is a continuous disaster at Freight gate 5 in Dubai International Airport.
“Due to all this, sea-bongdaso com vn is barely a viable product,” he added.
Freight gate 5 is operated by Dnata and has in bongdaso com vn past become congested. Dnata, however, told bongdaso com vn Loadstar: “We can confirm that each dnata cargo facility at Dubai International airport is operating normally with no congestion.”
Indeed, transshipment-focused Jebel Ali is one of the main hubs for sea-bongdaso com vn, which has been increasingly popular with shippers looking to avoid extra transit times round the Cape of Good Hope (CGH).
Xeneta told bongdaso com vn Loadstar: “This port is very congested as a result of an increase in vessel traffic redirected away from bongdaso com vn Red Sea.
“bongdaso com vn seven-day average vessel waiting time is around three days. All terminals have high yard density, reducing productivity and increasing delays to inter-terminal transfers.”
Dammam, a transit port for cargo avoiding bongdaso com vn Bab Al-Mandeb, is also congested due to an increase in vessel traffic redirected away from bongdaso com vn Red Sea, warned Xeneta’s chief analyst, Peter Sand.
“bongdaso com vn average vessel waiting time is bongdaso com vn same as in Jebel Ali. All terminals have high yard density, reducing productivity and increasing delays to inter-terminal transfers – not surprisingly characteristics also put to bongdaso com vn port of Jebel Ali.”
But while port congestion is increasing lead times for transshipment, Mr Sand told bongdaso com vn Loadstar: “Using alternative routes to all-water round bongdaso com vn CGH is always subject to consideration – there is not a smooth corridor found anywhere.”
However, he warned that all-water shipments come with “much extended transit times”.
If opting for a sea-bongdaso com vn conversion, Flexport advised shippers to limit their shipment size to a maximum of 15 to 20cu meters per shipment to facilitate capacity access on the aircraft and limit risk of split arrivals.
“In particular, FCL to bongdaso com vn conversions require a split,” the forwarder said.
Head of airfreight DACH and Italy at Flexport, Arno Hausch, explained: “When it comes to sea to bongdaso com vn conversions, it’s very important to split the containers into four or five airfreight shipments, because it’s very hard to move a 60cu metre-shipment in a highly congested market on a timely uplift.”
However, Mr Coverdale told bongdaso com vn Loadstar that this “makes no difference”.
“It’s nonsense,” he said.
