2020 Q2 Seasonal Capacity Adjustment - Europe Services

Due to market demand reductions in Europe caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, Maersk endeavours to balance our network to match reduced demand. We will therefore be seasonally suspending our AE2 (North Europe) and AE20 (Mediterranean) services on the Asia-Europe network during Q2 2020. The suspension is effective from week 15.

The services are expected to resume subject to improved market demand to which we will inform you in due course. Further blank sailings of other services may be announced subject to market conditions.

To ensure you will not face any business disruption, all port calls on the AE2 and AE20 services will be covered on other services in our network. In case of any questions, please contact your local customer service or sales representatives or check Schedules.
