On December 23, Maersk issued a notice on operating service adjustments during the Chinese Spring Festival in 2026 on its official website, implementing temporary sailing schedule adjustments for multiple route networks.
This adjustment involves multiple routes including the Trans-Pacific, Asia, Europe, Arabian Gulf, and East South America.
Maersk said that due to the decline in export business volume during the holidays and the reduction of manpower responsible for cargo operations, it is necessary to arrange a small number of empty flights to match capacity and maintain a balance between supply and demand in the route network.
The air flight adjustment involves the following routes:
Asia to US West Coast (eastbound)
US West Coast to Asia (westbound)
Asia to US East Coast (eastbound)
U.S. East Coast to Asia (westbound)
Far East Asia to Europe
Far East Asia to Arabian Gulf
Maersk stated that it will rebook cargo to the remaining route network in advance to continue to reduce the impact on customers. Any new changes to routes during the Chinese Spring Festival will be announced on the official website as soon as possible.
