Fog Delays China Ports
Recent fog and high winds have resulted in disruption to port operations at the Chinese ports of Shanghai, Ningbo and Qingdao. While operations are back to normal, a backlog has been caused by the adverse weather and is expected to continue for a few more days.
The latest information on the ports has been provided by our UniOcean Lines partners in the region:
