On 10 September, Maersk and Hapag-Lloyd release a network update covering operational insights into how the network has evolved since announcement, and presenting an alternative Cape of Good Hope network due to the on-going conflict in the Red Sea.

Network options:

• We have and will continue monitoring the situation in the Middle East very closely and hope that the situation will soon be resolved.
• So far, we have presented a network that transits through the Red Sea for the start of the Gemini partnership in February 2025.
• In addition, we are now also presenting an alternative Cape of Good Hope network following the same design principles and developed to deliver the reliability goals of the Gemini partnership.
• We will return to the Red Sea as soon as it is safe to do so, but as the situation remains highly dynamic, we will be prepared for either scenario – a return to the Red Sea, or a continuation of the alternative route south of the Cape of Good Hope.
• As there is still some time until the network will be phased in in February, we will continue monitoring the situation and update our customers as soon as additional information can be released.Irrespective of whether the Gemini partnership will begin with a Trans Suez or Cape or Good Hope network, the ambition is to provide industry-leading reliability (90% SeaIntel when fully phased in).
