In view of recent incidents affecting container vessels in the Red Sea, we acknowledge that communication is key.

To keep you informed, Kuehne+Nagel will regularly publish a list of the vessels diverted to sail via the Cape of Good Hope.

So far, we have identified 330 vessels impacted by the Red Sea situation. The total capacity is estimated at 4.5 million TEU.

Following efforts over the weekend by Houthi militants to board the container ship Maersk Hangzhou, Maersk decided to pause all transits through the Red Sea / Gulf of Aden until further notice.

Similarly, German carrier Hapag-Lloyd told Reuters that it will continue to take the Cape of Good Hope route until 9 January.

Please find the updated list of diverted vessels here with links to the services accessible to seaexplorer subscribers.

Kindly note that due to the volatility of the situation, Kuehne+Nagel cannot guarantee the completeness and accuracy of this list.

We are closely monitoring the developing situation in the Red Sea and working to minimise delay to your cargo. Our Kuehne+Nagel advisory details our efforts to support customers with affected shipments.

For further assistance, please get in touch with your local Kuehne+Nagel representative.
