G6 service suspends call at L.A./Long Beach due to port congestion
The G6 shipping alliance has reportedly suspended eastbound calls at the Port of Los Angeles for the next four sailings of its Asia-U.S. West Coast service, Pacific Atlantic 1, due to "ongoing congestion."
It was also reported that the G6 will skip other calls at APL’s Global Gateway South terminal in Los Angeles in order to "remain fluid," according to an APL customer advisory.
The alliance has been significantly impacted by chronic backlogs that have plagued the Los Angeles/Long Beach port complex over the past few months.
G6 is comprised of APL, Hapag-Lloyd, Hyundai Merchant Marine, MOL, NYK Line and OOCL.
