Shippers scrambling for alternatives as box lines divert from closed ports

“A Loadstar analysis of the eeSea liner database’s forthcoming US east and Gulf coast vessel calls shows a number of call omissions, with vessels either slow-steaming to the closed ports, at anchor, or returning to non-US ports.
