I am concerned about many of attached pineapple shipment plans by APL. When I checked the booking numbers on APL website, I don't see any containers assigned or loading confirmation, and some have changed to vessel Zim Djibouti with ETD May 1.
Please note, we do not have a freight contract from APL for shipments with BL date May 1 onwards. If containers are received by APL at the terminal on May 1 or later, we have to pay the regular tariff rate which will be very expensive.
(1) Please confirm/advise if you have picked up empty containers for these bookings?
- If yes, please urgently advise for which bookings and the container numbers, so we can make sure with APL that current contract CD11/0043 will apply
- The loaded containers must be returned to APL terminal by April 30th without fail.
- Please provide the interchange to confirm container receipt dates by APL
