Turkey: Authorities suspend ferry services in Izmir Dec. 11

Event

Authorities have suspended all ferry services in Izmir Dec. 11 due to adverse weather conditions. It remains unclear when the services will resume.

The suspension could cause a backlog of freight and passenger vehicles at the affected routes, prompting delivery delays.

Advice

Confirm ferry reservations. Do not travel to or route shipments through affected jetties without verifying onward transport. Allow additional time for shipments through Izmir; use alternative shipping methods for time-sensitive freight.
