Freight Rates

Shipping Arabia, October 22, 2026 – CMA CGM has announced freight rate increases for shipments from Asia to the Mediterranean, Black Sea and North Africa, effective November 1–14, 2026. The revised Freight All Kinds (FAK) rates cover 20-foot and 40-foot containers, with charges reaching $7,100 per 40-foot container for shipments to North Africa.

The French container shipping group, the world’s third-largest container carrier, announced the revised pricing in a company statement reported by Egyptian financial newspaper Al Mal. The adjustments cover five destination regions, with different rates applying according to container size and destination.

CMA CGM Freight Rate Increases Across Mediterranean Routes

Under the revised pricing structure, shipments from Asia to the Western Mediterranean will cost $3,900 per 20-foot container and $4,900 per 40-foot container. Rates for shipments to the Adriatic Sea will reach $4,000 and $5,000, respectively.

For the Eastern Mediterranean, CMA CGM has set freight rates at $4,200 per 20-foot container and $5,200 per 40-foot container. The carrier will apply identical rates to shipments from Asia to Black Sea ports.

Meanwhile, North Africa will face the highest charges among the five announced destination regions. Freight rates for this market will reach $5,300 per 20-foot container and $7,100 per 40-foot container.

The pricing structure places North Africa above the other listed destinations for both container sizes. For 40-foot containers, the announced North African rate exceeds the Western Mediterranean rate by $2,200 and the Eastern Mediterranean and Black Sea rates by $1,900.

Across the Western Mediterranean, Adriatic, Eastern Mediterranean and Black Sea routes, the announced rates for 40-foot containers are $1,000 higher than those for 20-foot containers. In contrast, the difference reaches $1,800 for shipments to North Africa.

The revised FAK rates will apply during the first two weeks of November, from November 1 through November 14, 2026.

CMA CGM Introduces Peak Season Surcharge From South America

In a separate announcement, CMA CGM has introduced a Peak Season Surcharge (PSS) of $150 per container for dry cargo shipments originating from the West Coast of South America.

The additional charge will take effect on November 1, 2026, and will apply to shipments serving multiple destinations across the Americas and the Asia-Pacific region.

In Central America and the Caribbean, the surcharge will cover shipments to the East Coast of Central America, the Caribbean region, the East Coast of Mexico, and the Leeward and Windward Islands.

The measure will also extend to shipments destined for the East Coast of South America, Canada and the United States. Outside the Americas, CMA CGM will apply the same surcharge to shipments bound for Australia and New Zealand.

Unlike the revised FAK rates for Asia–Mediterranean and North African services, which specify different amounts for 20-foot and 40-foot containers, the South American peak season surcharge is announced as a flat $150 charge per dry container.

Both pricing adjustments are scheduled to take effect on November 1, 2026, covering separate international container shipping trades.

Shipping Arabia, October 21, 2026 – Maersk has announced new Peak Season Surcharges (PSS) across several international container shipping routes, affecting shipments from South America to Egypt and Portugal, South Asia to the United States, and China and Hong Kong to Tanzania. The revised charges will take effect on different dates between October 30 and November 15, 2026, depending on the trade route.

The Maersk peak season surcharges range from $500 to $6,500 per container across the affected corridors. The company has specified different rates based on shipment origins, destinations, and container sizes.

Maersk Introduces $500 Surcharge on South America–Egypt and Portugal Routes

Maersk will introduce a Peak Season Surcharge of $500 per container on shipments originating in Argentina, Uruguay, and Paraguay and destined for Egypt and Portugal, effective November 1, 2026.

The surcharge applies to both dry and refrigerated containers, covering 20-foot and 40-foot equipment. The same charge will apply regardless of the two specified container sizes.

For shipments originating in Brazil and destined for Egypt and Portugal, the $500 surcharge will take effect on November 15, 2026, and remain applicable until further notice.

These measures establish separate implementation dates for shipments from Brazil and the other three South American countries, while maintaining the same surcharge amount across the specified container categories.

Peak Season Surcharges Reach $6,500 on South Asia–U.S. Shipments

Maersk has also announced additional Peak Season Surcharges on container shipments originating in several South Asian countries and destined for the United States, particularly the U.S. East Coast and Gulf Coast.

Under the announced tariff, shipments from India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, the Maldives, Nepal, and Bhutan to these U.S. destinations will be subject to a surcharge of $6,500 per container.

The charge applies to both 20-foot and 40-foot containers. The announced coverage also includes shipments originating in southern and eastern India.

Meanwhile, shipments from Pakistan to the specified U.S. destinations will face a Peak Season Surcharge of $5,000 per container, applicable to both 20-foot and 40-foot equipment.

The revised charges establish different surcharge levels for Pakistan and the other South Asian origins identified in Maersk’s announcement.

Maersk Raises Surcharges on China and Hong Kong Shipments to Tanzania

In a separate adjustment, Maersk will increase Peak Season Surcharges on shipments originating in China and Hong Kong and destined for the Port of Dar es Salaam in Tanzania.

The revised charges will take effect on October 30, 2026, and remain applicable until further notice.

Under the updated tariff, the surcharge will reach $1,100 per 20-foot container and $1,700 per 40-foot container.

Unlike the announced surcharges on the South American and South Asian routes, the revised charges for Dar es Salaam vary according to container size.

Shipping Arabia, October 11, 2026 – Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC) has announced an extension of its piracy risk surcharge and Suez Canal surcharge to additional destinations across the Mediterranean and North Africa. The expanded charges will take effect on October 19, 2026, and remain applicable until further notice, bringing the combined surcharges to $91 per TEU on affected shipments originating in Asia.

MSC attributed the decision to continuing piracy risks around the Arabian Peninsula. According to the carrier, these risks continue to affect vessel operations and shipping routes, prompting the expansion of surcharge coverage to additional destinations.

MSC Piracy Risk Surcharge and Suez Canal Charges

Under the revised geographical coverage, MSC will apply two separate surcharges to shipments moving from Asia to the specified destinations.

The piracy risk surcharge will amount to $55 per TEU, while the Suez Canal surcharge will be $36 per TEU. Together, the two charges total $91 per TEU.

Both surcharges will apply from October 19, 2026, and remain in effect until MSC issues further notice.

The announcement expands the geographical application of the charges across several Mediterranean and North African markets, covering a range of container shipping destinations.

Eastern Mediterranean and North African Ports Included

The MSC piracy risk surcharge extension covers all shipments originating in Asia and destined for Derince in Turkey and West Port Said in Egypt.

Beyond these Eastern Mediterranean destinations, the carrier has expanded coverage to numerous ports across North Africa.

The affected North African destinations include Agadir, Algiers, Annaba, Béjaïa, Benghazi, Casablanca, Al Khums, Misrata, Nador, Oran, Skikda, Tripoli and Tunis.

These locations form part of the wider geographical extension announced by MSC for its piracy risk and Suez Canal surcharges.

Western Mediterranean, Adriatic and Other Destinations

The expanded surcharge coverage also includes several major container shipping destinations in the Western Mediterranean and Adriatic regions.

Among the Spanish destinations covered are Alicante, Barcelona, Cartagena, Málaga and Valencia. The extension also includes Arrecife de Lanzarote, Las Palmas, Puerto del Rosario and Santa Cruz de Tenerife in the Canary Islands.

In Italy, the affected destinations include Ancona, Augusta, Bari, Cagliari, Civitavecchia, Genoa, Gioia Tauro, La Spezia, Livorno, Naples, Palermo, Pozzallo, Ravenna, Salerno, Trapani and Venice.

Additional destinations include Fos-sur-Mer in France, Marsaxlokk in Malta, Bar in Montenegro, Durrës in Albania and Ploče in Croatia.

The expanded list extends the application of the charges across a broad network of ports serving Mediterranean, North African and Adriatic container shipping markets.

Surcharges to Remain Effective Until Further Notice

MSC confirmed that the expanded charges will apply from October 19, 2026, with no specified expiration date.

The decision extends the application of the piracy risk and Suez Canal surcharges to additional shipments originating in Asia and moving to the designated destinations.

For affected cargo, the combined charge of $91 per TEU will remain applicable until the shipping line announces a further revision.

Shipping Arabia, October 11, 2026 – French container shipping company CMA CGM has announced a $1,000 peak season surcharge (PSS) on refrigerated container shipments from Northern Europe to Arabian Gulf destinations, effective from mid-October 2026. The additional charge will apply exclusively to reefer containers and will be levied on top of existing ocean freight rates.

The carrier confirmed the new surcharge in an announcement outlining the upcoming adjustment to its freight charges. The measure specifically targets refrigerated cargo moving from Northern Europe to Arabian Gulf countries, rather than all containerized shipments on the trade route.

The $1,000 charge represents an additional cost per refrigerated container, separate from the underlying ocean freight rate.

CMA CGM Peak Season Surcharge Targets Reefer Cargo

The CMA CGM peak season surcharge will take effect in mid-October, according to the company’s announcement.

The carrier specified that the surcharge applies only to refrigerated containers. Other container types were not included in the announced measure.

The additional fee will be applied separately from the original freight rate, increasing the total shipping charges for affected reefer shipments moving between Northern Europe and Arabian Gulf destinations.

Maersk Ends Cooperation with CMA CGM on ASAS2 Service

In a separate development, Maersk announced that it will terminate its cooperation with CMA CGM on the ASAS2 container shipping service connecting Asia with the East Coast of South America.

The final sailing under the existing cooperation arrangement is scheduled to depart Shanghai on December 8, 2026, operating as voyage 650W.

Following that departure, the ASAS2 service will be discontinued, bringing the current arrangement between the two container shipping companies on the trade route to an end.

However, Maersk confirmed that it will maintain its presence in the Asia–East Coast South America trade through its existing ASAS service.

Maersk to Maintain Asia–South America Shipping Connections

According to Maersk, the ASAS service will continue operating normally as a product managed and controlled entirely by the Danish shipping company.

Customers will remain able to book shipments between Asia and the East Coast of South America through the ASAS network without interruption following the termination of the ASAS2 cooperation.

Maersk explained that retaining full operational control will allow it to manage and develop the service independently, responding directly to customer requirements and changing market conditions.

The decision marks the end of the CMA CGM–Maersk cooperation on ASAS2 while preserving Maersk’s container shipping offering between Asia and the East Coast of South America.

Shipping Arabia, October 1, 2026 – Global container shipping has adapted to prolonged disruptions across the Middle East, maintaining cargo flows through alternative routes and operational adjustments, but the industry’s return to normal conditions is expected to be considerably more gradual.

Shipping companies have spent months adjusting their networks in response to disruptions affecting the Red Sea and the Strait of Hormuz. While those measures have allowed global trade to continue, they have come at the expense of higher operating costs, longer voyages and reduced network efficiency.

Several Maersk services have now returned to the Red Sea and Suez Canal route after earlier diversions prompted by regional security concerns, providing one of the clearest indications that carriers are gradually restoring some of their traditional routing.

Maersk’s global head of chemicals, Patrick Hore, said the container shipping system had adapted to disruption in the Middle East, although vessel availability and irregular trade flows continued to present significant challenges. The carrier has been increasing the number of services operating through the Red Sea and Suez Canal, including six major Asia-Europe services as well as services connecting the Middle East with Europe and North America.

For the wider industry, however, adaptation should not be confused with a complete return to normal operating conditions.

AbdulRahman Taleb Ali, a maritime specialist and researcher, board member of the Jordan Shipping Association and founder of Shipping Arabia, a leading maritime news platform covering the Middle East and North Africa, told CNN Business Arabic that the global maritime shipping system had successfully adjusted to disruptions in both the Red Sea and Strait of Hormuz, but that this adjustment had come at a cost to efficiency and operating expenses.

Shipping companies have maintained the movement of cargo by introducing alternative routes, particularly around the Cape of Good Hope, but longer voyages have increased fuel consumption, security-related expenses and other operating costs.

The gradual return to the Suez Canal represents another part of that adaptation process rather than an immediate restoration of pre-disruption shipping patterns.

Ali said carriers continue to assess security risks, market demand and costs as they determine when and how to restore services through the canal. Suez nevertheless remains the shortest and most efficient maritime connection between Asia and Europe.

A broader return to the Suez route could reduce both transit times and transportation costs for cargo moving from China and other Asian markets into Europe, while helping shipping networks regain some of the efficiency lost during prolonged diversions around southern Africa.

The transition is taking place against a backdrop of continued pressure on global container shipping capacity.

DHL Global Forwarding data cited by CNN Business Arabic showed that global freight rates continued to rise during September, with particularly strong upward pressure on eastbound trans-Pacific services.

Carriers are also gradually increasing their use of the Suez Canal. Around 18% of relevant Asia-Europe services are now planned to operate through the route, according to the report.

Capacity constraints, meanwhile, are not necessarily being driven by stronger cargo demand alone. ICIS reported that Maersk was operating at around 96% of capacity, with slower vessel movements through ports and inland distribution networks absorbing available ships and equipment.

Equipment availability has also evolved as shipping networks adjust.

Ali said shortages of empty containers were no longer the industry’s primary challenge, with the gradual return of services through the Suez Canal helping improve equipment availability. However, the continued use of the Cape of Good Hope by some carriers is contributing to imbalances in the distribution of empty containers between export ports.

Longer voyages around the Cape also require additional vessel capacity to maintain scheduled services. The consequences extend beyond the additional distance, with carriers facing higher fuel consumption, insurance premiums and war-risk costs, as well as increased seafarer wages and risk allowances.

These pressures are being compounded by strong demand for shipping capacity and limited routing alternatives in parts of the global network.

A larger shift back toward the Red Sea and Suez Canal could ultimately ease some of these pressures by shortening voyages and releasing vessel capacity. In the short term, however, the transition itself could create a new operational challenge for European ports.

Ships travelling through the Suez Canal reach Europe considerably faster than vessels continuing around the Cape of Good Hope. As carriers gradually restore Suez routings, faster vessels using the canal could therefore arrive at European ports at approximately the same time as slower ships that departed earlier via southern Africa.

This convergence could temporarily increase congestion at some European terminals.

DHL data showed that global port congestion was approaching capacity equivalent to 4 million containers, highlighting the pressure already affecting parts of the international logistics network.

Ali said any congestion resulting from the overlapping arrival patterns should be viewed as a transitional challenge rather than a permanent condition. As shipping lines progressively restore traditional routes, ports and shipping networks will need time to realign vessel schedules, equipment flows and capacity.

The developments illustrate how the global shipping industry has demonstrated its ability to adapt to prolonged geopolitical disruption, but also how difficult it is to reverse those adjustments once networks have been reorganized around alternative routes.

The return to Suez is therefore likely to remain progressive. Even as more services resume passage through the Red Sea, carriers will continue balancing security, cost and operational considerations while global shipping networks work through the consequences of months of altered vessel schedules and longer voyages.

The rate for a 20-foot container will rise from $5,200 to $5,420. Meanwhile, the rate for a 40-foot container will increase from $5,700 to $6,200.

The company’s announcement also covers shipments from Pakistan to the Black Sea region, although the source article provides specific old and revised rate levels only for Northern Europe and Mediterranean destinations.

Separate Increase for U.S.-Bound Shipments

The Pakistan–Europe freight rate adjustment follows another Hapag-Lloyd rate decision announced on September 17. That measure covers services from the Indian Subcontinent, Pakistan and the Middle East to the U.S. East Coast and Houston.

The separate adjustment will apply to fully loaded containers delivered into terminals from October 15, 2026. Hapag-Lloyd set the increase at $1,000 per container, and the revised level will also remain in effect until further notice.
