CMA CGM: Severe weather conditions in the Atlantic

Severe weather conditions are currently impacting the navigation conditions in the Atlantic, along the French, Spanish and Moroccan coastlines, with an event of exceptional intensity and duration, particularly in the Bay of Biscay.

As a precautionary measure, CMA CGM Group has decided to place vessels transiting the area in safe positions to ensure the safety of crews and cargo. This measure applies to the entire area from southern Morocco to the entrance of the English Channel, with holding positions notably in the Seine Bay and in Gibraltar.

The following services are impacted: FAL, EPIC, US, EURAF, LATAM and SSL.

Navigation in the Bay of Biscay is scheduled to resume on Saturday, January 31, subject to weather conditions.
