The CMA CGM Group has implemented contingency plans for services crossing the Suez Canal to ensure the safety of its vessels and crew members amidst recent attacks on commercial ships in the Red Sea.
Short-term rerouting of traffic
CMA CGM has recently announced that the NEMO Service would temporarily reroute through the Cape of Good Hope instead of traversing the Suez Canal.
The NEMO Service features a direct fixed-day weekly service connecting Europe with Reunion, Mauritius, Australia (SB) and Australia with Singapore, Colombo, and Ennore (NB).
According to CMA CGM, the revised rotation is the following:
London Gateway > Rotterdam > Hamburg > Antwerp > Le Havre > Valencia > La Spezia > Fos Sur Mer > Cape of Good Hope > Pointe des Galets > Port Louis > Sydney > Melbourne > Adelaide > Fremantle > Singapore > Ennore > Colombo > Cape of Good Hope > London Gateway
