Regarding to my four shipments, I couldn’t solve or impact somehow on this situation being on vacation. I can’t find out now if there were any options to solve the issue. But there is no doubts, that we could have avoided this issue if I had received amendments from the carrier website. In spite of this circumstances, I tried to do everything to protect these orders and deliver the cargo in time. Of course, I asked the carrier for earlier vessel and received updates. But truckers probably could not catch those closings anyway. The huge extra costs for demurrage will probably be reflected somehow on me.

Regarding my four shipments, I couldn’t resolve or influence this situation, as I was on vacation. I can’t find out now if there were any options to resolve the issue. But there is no doubt that we could have avoided this issue if I had received updates/information from the carrier website. In spite of these circumstances, I tried to do everything possible to protect these orders and deliver the cargo on time. Of course, I asked the carrier for an earlier vessel (do you literally mean a ship? if so it's correct) and received updates. But truckers probably could not catch those closings anyway (not sure what this means; may be correct). The huge extra costs for demurrage will probably be possed on to me somehow.
Not bad! Some of these words like DEMURRAGE may be specific to the shipping industry.
