Hapag-Lloyd CEO says Hormuz normalisation needs three months at least in International Shipping News 11/06/2026 Hapag-Lloyd (ETR:HLAG) CEO told customers that the timeline for reopening the Strait of Hormuz remains uncertain, and normalisation of shipping operations will require additional time after access is restored. The CEO said that even after the strait reopens, the recovery process will take time. The duration of normalisation will depend on how long the current crisis continues, with a minimum of three months needed at this stage. The shipping company expects a reassessment of long-term service routes to the Gulf region once the Strait of Hormuz reopens. The CEO noted that much of the shipping activity will return to pre-Iran war patterns. Source: Investing.com 2026-06-11 hellenicshippingnews... tweet Share
